It's no secret that I love all things French and all things Aussie, so a combination of the two is sure to blow my mind! After several months of having this place bookmarked and following their Instagram page (after it was recommended by another favorite restaurant in Paris, Holybelly), I couldn't wait to finally try it during my next trip to Paris. I have my favorites in this city, but I had a feeling this place would be a new addition to my go-to list.
Absolutely worth the wait and anticipation, and not to mention the spontaneous cardio/glute workout hiking up Montmartre and the Sacré-Cœur stairs! Let's just say our appetites were ready for The Hardware Société when we arrived! Luckily on a weekday morning, it wasn't crowded, and we were seated in the back by the window right away. Gorgeous, quintessential Parisian views, and warm, bright, and cozy yet modern ambiance, plus the faint scent of lavender floating in from the flowers just outside the window. What a way to set the stage!
Our brunch was delicious and flat whites were on point! We ordered the Champignons Grillés (Roasted Mushrooms) and Oeufs Brouillés (Scrambled Eggs) without bacon, so all very vegetarian friendly as well. The service was great, and of course it was helpful that everyone spoke English, as my French needs a lot of work! Another bonus is that they grow their herbs themselves, so everything is very fresh. I'm already thinking about when I can return to Paris next and eat here again!
