@eater

"This Chestnut Hill newcomer has quickly built up a loyal following throughout the Northwest part of the city. Styled after a Parisian café, Matines Cafe features croissant sandwiches and quiche at breakfast while lunch brings a list of sandwiches on croissants and baguettes, including the Haute Dog with a bechamel-doused sausage. Arthur and Amanda de Bruc, the cafe’s husband-and-wife owners, both grew up in Paris." - Sarah Maiellano
