This mainstay has been on the menu for decades and for good reason; whether you’re in the mood for a lazy brunch or late afternoon pick-me-up, this is an absolute classic.Alternatively, for a bit of extra indulgence, go for a croque madame (very similar, but with a fried egg to crown the dish). Pair that with a cassis-flavored kir royale Champagne cocktail, and you’re all set!During summer months, the brasserie terrace is the perfect spot to bask in a bit of Parisian sunshine.
