The chef and owner of Goosefoot spent a number of years as the man in charge of the kitchen at the upscale Les Nomades (see below) before he decided to go out on his own. A good way to think of Goosefoot is that the owner took the core values of everything he was doing at Les Nomades and freed himself from the stuffiness there. Like a peacock, he let himself fly. So while Goosefoot is still very elegant and sophisticated, there’s a bit of casual Ravenswood style, and more fun to be had here all around. The BYOB policy definitely helps.
