A new bar and restaurant intended to give young professionals the same kind of entertainment that has flourished downtown will open in early March on Perkins Road, say organizers. The forthcoming Le Bons Temps bar and restaurant in the Panache Plaza retail development at 8342 Perkins Road, between Essen Lane and Bluebonnet Boulevard, will feature three distinct components: a full-service restaurant with “upscale Cajun cuisine,” a courtyard with outdoor seating, and a lounge with a 42-inch illuminated wall that changes colors. Former Bin 77 Chef Blake Abadie, tapped to be executive chef at Le Bons Temps, has designed a menu that includes a 10-pound suckling pig stuffed with boudin and garnished with etouffee and frog legs. Le Bon Temps is also planning to feature a nighttime deejay and Sunday brunch. Get more local culinary news from the new 225 Dine e-newsletter here.
