Chef-owner Lorenzo Gantonio tried out some of the world's hottest spots (Nice, Morocco, Monte Carlo) before settling in the sleepy village of Williamsburg to start up his French/Mediterranean restaurant. Like stepping into a provincial French cottage, with mint-green walls, rustic décor, and wood flooring. Authentic cuisine lays the cream and butter on thick. Crepes are the specialty, with savories like ham, French cheese, and mushroom. Sweet renditions tempt with indulgent fillings like butter and sugar or Nutella. All of it's pretty ideal for weekend brunch.
