The perfect way to end a busy day of golf, waterskiing or sightseeing? Linger over a fantastic waterfront meal at La Torretta Del Lago Resort and Spa in Montgomery, Texas. Located just outside of Houston, the property has an impressive 10 on-site restaurants, not to mention room service and catering. But the piece de resistance is award-winning French chef Albert Roux's first American restaurant, Chez Roux. This four-star gem features rotating weekly menus of contemporary French cuisine prepared with fresh local produce and Parisian flair. A modern open kitchen, breathtaking views and exquisitely prepared cuisine -- think Maine lobster mousse and caviar wrapped in spinach with Champagne sauce -- make the Chez Roux experience a true culinary treat. Try not to drool after you click "See Video" below, then start planning your trip via the Modern Luxury Houston page!
