"Frenchie’s can make you feel like you’re in a bistro in Paris’ red light district—except you’re in Coral Gables. There’s a glow from the red light bulbs that makes everyone in the restaurant look effortlessly sexy. Framed posters of melancholic Frenchmen like Serge Gainsbourg line the walls alongside long mirrors, so you too can practice your mysteriously brooding look. Normally, we’d tell you to order the escargot in garlic butter or rich French onion soup. But if you’re interested in getting the kind of kiss the French are famous for, maybe order the duck confit instead." - mariana trabanino, ryan pfeffer, virginia otazo
