"There are plenty of places to have a chic romantic dinner around town. For a romantic brunch, you can’t do much better than La Fontaine and its manicured floral arrangements and furniture in pastel shades of pink and magenta. They serve excellent French food as well, like an omelet stuffed with smoked ham and emmental that’s drizzled in a creamy parmesan sauce, and they have three kinds of hollandaise: classic, truffle, and lemon. Split an order of the fluffy soufflé pancakes with lemon curd that’s complemented by thyme-spiced whipped cream. This is also a nice pick for early risers since they open at 7am." - emmy kasten, melinda sheckells, ryan slattery
