Bistro LeRoux, Brunch
Emmène-moi au brunch au LeRoux! The girls and I had a fabulous, elevated French brunch at LeRoux over the weekend. If you have never been, go! We had the best time.
We arrived at LeRoux and were seated at a table in the front dining room. The aesthetic of LeRoux was that of an elegant French Bistro. Crystal chandeliers twinkled against blue walls. The floors were white and black checkered - clean & chic. General Manager, Lauren and Server, Michael took great care of us. Lauren was poised & hospitable; she ensured every table was well looked after. Michael had quick wit and kept us on our toes throughout our meal.
We started off with bottomless mimosas. Jaclyn and I had the grapefruit and Kenzy went with orange.
Nothing beats bottomless mimosas with girlfriends, especially in a space as gorgeous as Le Roux.
For 'Something Savory' we had the Croque Madame made with brioche, cured ham, béchamel, and egg.
This was the best Croque Madame I have ever had - the freshly made brioche was a game changer. The French béchamel was the smooth, white sauce that generously coated this decadent breakfast sandwich. The creamy béchamel and sunny side up egg yolk soaked into the fluffy brioche when we cut into it. Each bite was buttery & savory. The cured ham added lively saltiness. Délicieuse!
For 'Something Sweet' we had the Crepe made with blueberry, lemon, and rose jam.
The thin, delicate crepe was filled with fresh blueberries and fluffy lemon cream cheese. The lemon cream cheese was mild in taste and the sweetness of this dish really came from the rose jam & blueberries.
For 'Bistro Fare' we had the Steamed Market Mussels made with sherry cream, saffron, and French fries.
These mussels tasted as good as they looked. The saffron was earthy and lent its golden hue to the mussels and broth. The mussels were maritime and luxuriously creamy from the sherry. The French fries were nicely seasoned and perfectly fried - crisp on the outside, fluffy on the inside.
Now that’s how to do a dazzling brunch.
Huge thanks to LeRoux, Lauren, Michael, and Larry Herz for hosting us!
