Bar Bouchée captured the hearts and culinary imaginations of local residents when it opened in 2010, thanks to its French cuisine and carefully curated selection of wines and cheeses. Owner Jean Pierre Vuillermet lived in Madison for 10 years. He knows what residents like, and he is well known for his success at New Haven-based Union League Cafe.
