Releve is the French word for "Appetizers" similar to entree, however there is a difference between the two (2) wherein Releves are more voluminous, are usually braised, poeled, poached or roasted, while the entrees, consisting of smaller pieces, are chiefly sauted, poached, or grilled. Releve, in the menus of old fashioned dinners a la Francaise is said to be generally twice, if not thrice as numerous as the entree. Releve is also the French for water ice.
