I loved this place, almost more than Bottega Louie, and not because Madonna shot a video here, or that there's celebrity sightings all the time, but because they serve latte's in bowls, and make sudio authentic french fare, LOVE IT!
It had the quintessential feeling of being in "Something's Gotta Give" in the last scene, when their in Paris and the music is wafting through the air, Campari is on the mirrored bar, and all the waitresses are wearing perfect red lipstick and have black hair. Adorable!
Super Yumminess Personified!
Croque-Madame
A croque-monsieur is a hot ham and cheese (typically emmental or gruyère) grilled sandwich. It originated in France as a fast-food snack served in cafés and bars. This version, a Croque-Madame came coated in a Mornay or Béchamel sauce, all with a poached runny egg on top!
Beautiful, and very yummy, spinach salad served with breaded warm goat cheese! Such a smart idea, and so under-utilized in restaurants!
This place is great for people watching outside on the patio, or embracing ambiance in the formal dining room - either way, make sure to sup from their coffee selection, it's an experience, and the coffee is great too! Maybe even better than the lauded Intellegencia coffee to the stars!
