It was French cuisine in Soho for brunch one Sunday recently. We had lots to catch up on, so we started with a bottle of Marsannay ‘Le Centenaire’ Domaine Bruno Clair 2019 rosé.
We shared two entrees served separately, starting with one of their classic dishes.
Crèpe complète ($28) with a buckwheat crêpe wrapped around Paris ham and comté, with a sunny-side-up egg, all drizzled crème fraîche. Delicately delicious.
Next, we shared the Croque monsieur ($21 + $3) with the Paris ham and comté, turned madame with the addition of an egg, that our server forgot. He brought us the egg later.
We did indulge in their profiteroles (5) au chocolate, filled with vanilla ice cream ($17) to finish the meal before heading inside to window-shop at the Guild, a place to purchase the high-priced tableware used at Le Mercerie. Interesting though.
I would recommend a visit.
