épicerie

"Any day of the week, you can count on Epicerie in Allandale for an epic bakery counter. If kouign amanns and pecan cinnamon rolls sound too sweet, there’s the hedonistic, wobbly quiche, or the flaky breakfast croissant sandwich that’ll leave your hands shiny with butter. But the Sunday-only brunch menu items—like soft cooked eggs with trout roe alongside a za’atar english muffin, or strawberries with housemade ricotta—are dishes to plan your Sunday around." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion, matthew jacobs

"The Rosedale New Orleans/French-ish restaurant’s daytime brunch is full of eggy wonders, including breakfast croissant sandwiches and quiches, along with some cheffy dishes that combine fresh fish, pork, and veggies with breakfast elements. Brunch hours start at 10 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday. Takeout orders can be placed online and there are indoor and outdoor services." - Nadia Chaudhury

"The charming cafe and grocery serves up Louisiana-French dishes while also stocking great retail products such as soaps, jams, candles, towels, and bottles of wine. Orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury

"The Rosedale French-New Orleans restaurant’s soup offerings include the ooey-gooey French onion. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury

"A cute neighborhood house turned restaurant in Allandale, Epicerie is just as easy on the eyes as it is good for the stomach. Serving up breakfast every day of the week (except Tuesdays) Epicerie’s menu might not be the longest, but what they do, they do very well (our go-to is the croissant breakfast sandwich). If you need to meet someone for a semi-professional breakfast, Epicerie would be perfect. " - raphael brion, nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs
