coffee with praise
In France, the morning begins with a piece of hot bread
For every morning when you get up early and walk in a hurry, what is suitable to wake up the sleepy spirit is definitely a piece of hot bread just baked by the French. In a daze in the morning, I wandered to the familiar bakery on the street corner and was awakened by the smell of wheat and yellow oil coming from it, which was a warm ceremony to start a new day.
Bread is an indispensable part of French life, and it is also one of the symbols of French cuisine. No matter which city you are in, people who shuttle through the streets with French sticks belong to the unique and charming scenery of this country.
At the corner of Wuding Road, there is a low-key French bakery where the house number and name can't be found. A small room is always very lively, full of the warmth and simplicity of French street shops. Foreigners coming and going, white-collar workers rushing to work, grandparents with children will naturally push open the door when passing by and buy a loaf of bread before leaving.
There are many kinds of bread in the bakery, and the quality of the bread is also very good in Modu, following the traditional practice. Of course, there are also some special models that are quite thoughtful and full of surprises. There is almost no minefield when you close your eyes.
when I first discovered this small shop in 2117, I was conquered by the baguette here. It was full and well-proportioned, and the knife edge was neatly opened to expose the toasted golden bread. The internal pores are even and slightly moist, and you can smell the faint aroma of natural yeast. When it first came out of the oven, the hot baguette was crisp outside and tough inside, and the aroma and taste were charming, so I fell in love with it from then on.
If soybean milk fritters are a perfect match for Chinese breakfast, then the golden partners in French breakfast are Kesong and coffee. Even if you can't get used to French sour bread, almost no one doesn't love French butter-rich crispy bread. Bite down the crispy and delicious bread with a slight sweetness, and then sip a mellow and bitter latte, and the sleepy spirit will be cheered up by happiness.
exquisite French afternoon tea
No matter how busy you are, you should enjoy a sweet afternoon
What else do you think of when you think of France? French desserts will probably come to mind in the first place. Delicate and delicate in appearance, with complicated layers hidden inside, the romantic French made desserts into art. Therefore, it is not only the British who love afternoon tea, but also the French who love to enjoy a beautiful and slow life, and also have dessert afternoon tea with a unique French sweet style.
Fang Chen's exquisite desserts are all made into mini-sizes with classical mirrors, such as macaroon, chocolate, chanti puffs, classic caramel vanilla Napoleon, chocolate Mu Si cake, lemon tart and Clouli. Although they are mini, they still maintain excellent taste and taste level. This set of afternoon tea covers almost all kinds of French desserts, and it is classic, and you can eat the essence of French desserts at one time.
The afternoon tea is also served with salty points, and the crispy and fragrant mini can praise the little one, which is very cute. Sandwiched with homemade smoked salmon and served with French sour cream sauce, eaten in two or three bites, it is delicious enough.
Mini-burger is petite but very tasty. The hamburger embryo made by Brio Xiu Bread is rich in butter flavor, accompanied by beef patties with rich gravy and large pieces of foie gras, which makes the hamburger as exquisite as a French meal.
Traditional and classic French flavor
All the models have French dishes with a history that can be traced back
And the warm French bakery and exquisite French afternoon tea above all come from this stylish French bistro. Being in the Jing 'an Temple business circle, but avoiding the bustling noise, I quietly hid in the street corner of Wuding Road, which is full of life. Every dinner time is very popular, and you can taste the classic beauty of a century-old French meal here.
As our favorite pub, the menu has been rolled over several times, but we always think of it every time we want to eat traditional French food. First, because classics don't get tired of eating, they always make people forget; Second, because the dishes here have been upgraded and become more exquisite on the basis of tradition, every bite can be eaten with the enthusiasm and intention of the chef, which constantly brings us pleasant little surprises.
There is also a small French wine cellar that we love, which contains hundreds of high-quality wines from all major producing areas, from south to north and from east to west, covering the representative wines from all producing areas, even including the collection-level famous vintage wines from Daming Village. A French dinner must be properly matched with wine.
So every time I come to dinner, it's fun to choose wine after ordering. As an old guest, please ask the manager to show us around the wine cellar, and we can learn a lot about wine and table wine collocation besides choosing wine.
traditional French pie
P? Té is a classic that can be seen everywhere in pubs and butcher shops in France, and it is also a signboard here. The fragrant meat stuffing is wrapped in ham, duck leg meat, foie gras and other ingredients. The gel has a sweet bouquet and a faint smoky smell, mixed with the aroma of black truffles and pistachios, and the rich flavors are connected in series into a whole, which is rich and satisfying, making the French country flavor particularly exquisite.
Country aspic combination
Country aspic is also a classic French food with a history of 111 years, and it is rare to see it in the magic capital because of its exquisite workmanship and complicated preparation. Surprisingly, the aspic combination here has been upgraded recently! More exquisite, with bread and red wine, so that many French friends can solve the homesickness on the tip of their tongue.
the green model is based on the mixed vanilla flavor, and the sour and fresh taste are intertwined with the meaty feeling, which is refreshing and appetizing. The middle one has obvious happy fruit aroma, oily foie gras taste, oily aroma and happiness. The last one has obvious smoky taste, smooth taste and overflowing juice. Each flavor is very different but full of meat, which is a classic French country flavor that is bold and elegant.
Lucie foie gras parfait
Lucie foie gras, produced in France, is one of the three treasures of French cuisine and the top three delicacies. Its rich and wonderful oily aroma always makes people unconsciously sink into it. The foie gras needs to be soaked with mixed herbs and wine, baked for a long time through a special process, put into a jar with goose oil seal, and then give time for the flavor to blend and precipitate before a good foie gras can be made.
In France, fig jam is a classic partner of foie gras, and the fig jam here is not simple. Pickled with white Potter, carefully filtered after baking, just the right sweet and sour taste just neutralizes the rich taste of foie gras, and served with Brio Xiu bread baked until it is crisp and fragrant, which is an incomparable enjoyment.
French crispy black truffle soup
Crispy black truffle soup is a famous work of French chef Bo Gu, which first appeared on the menu he made for the French royal family in the Elysee Palace in France. Not only should the soup base be simmered at a constant temperature all night, but the pastry also needs time to be refrigerated and folded layer by layer, which takes a lot of effort.
after serving, plan the top with black truffles, and you can crack the pastry gracefully like the French royal family. The black truffles fall into the soup, and the aroma wafts out with the hot air. Adding ingredients such as foie gras, veal and black truffle, the rich and rich soup base is mixed with crispy pastry, with the aroma of black truffle, which makes people feel satisfied physically and mentally.
Siberian roe sauce 51g with protein cream sauce, salty soda biscuits
Apart from foie gras, truffles are caviar, and Fang Chen is like a treasure in a shiny and moist shell. When tasting caviar, it must be accompanied by fine and elegant champagne and exclusive shell spoon, so that such an elegant ceremony can live up to its taste.
In Siberia, soda biscuits are standard for caviar. With a lightly whipped egg white cream sauce as the base, put a spoonful of caviar on it, and the caviar at the entrance looks like dancing in your mouth. After drinking a sip of champagne, the whole person wants to dance with the delicious food.
Smoked king Salmon with Potato Shufulei
Smoked King Salmon, which is common, is also very wonderful here. Long-term pickling gives salmon a more flexible taste and rich flavor, and then cold-smoked with walnut, the flavor is complex and charming with the unique oil fragrance of salmon and very tender and smooth.
The side dish potato, Shufulei, is light and airy, and its interior is as hollow as a puff, filled with French sour cream sauce. Serve with salmon. Fish seed sauce, avocado puree, lime peel, and fragrant fennel in milk sauce are all seemingly simple dishes, which are surprising little by little.

Right: Bluefin Tuna Tatar with crispy rice slices
Butter jam, Siberian sturgeon caviar
Tuna Tatar, like beef Tatar, are all classic dishes here. Tuna is delicious and sweet, with crispy rice slices and delicacy. The other dish is a creative dish that is rare here. It is also very harmonious to wrap foie gras with the sweetness of roasted eel. The sour and fragrant yellow wine gel is just boring, and the tradition and creativity are very wonderful.
French Brittany blue lobster with Italian flat noodles
Lobster juice, fresh tomato sauce, whipped cream, basil leaves and fresh herbs
There are three classic dishes you must not miss when you come here. This season, Brittany blue lobster is the first one. Only 1 out of 11 million are rare, and fishing is difficult, which makes this precious marine treasure highly sought after by French gourmets since the 5th century, and it is the table darling of excellent French restaurants.
In this season, fresh blue lobsters are full of shrimp seeds, and complicated seasoning cooking is not needed. The perfect heat brings out the crisp and tender taste of shrimp meat. Lobster juice is rich in the delicacy of the sea, which infiltrates the pasta. You can also eat a string of crispy and sweet lobster seeds with a glass of Chablis white wine, which has a refreshing and wonderful experience.
French bresse chicken is made with butter truffles and mashed potatoes with black truffles, and the original chicken juice
France will be called "gallic cock", and this "chicken" is the French "national chicken" bresse chicken. Like wine, Brest chicken, which has AOC legal production area and strict feeding supervision standards, is the first choice for Michelin restaurants in France, and the red crown, white feather and blue feet are just the colors of the French flag. Every year on Christmas Eve, there will be a Brece Chicken Competition in the Brece area, and the first prize will be the main course of the Christmas dinner at Ashley Palace.
special seasoning black truffle butter is brewed into the chicken cavity to enhance the fragrance, and the fragrance alone is enough to hook people after being baked. You can tell the waiter to take a photo at the top, and then give it to the kitchen to help you cut it carefully. After serving, you can plane the French black truffle, which is full of ceremony.
The fat of Brest chicken is evenly distributed, the chicken flavor is very rich, the skin is crispy, the chicken juice is full, the meat is delicious and chewy, and even the chicken breast is full of aroma and tender taste. No wonder the French Prime Minister is a fan of it. The fresh and delicious chicken is perfectly matched with Burgundy Black Pi Nuo, which is fruity and refreshing.
Racine's signature Wellington steak (M9 Australian pure blood and beef tenderloin)
Seasonally roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes with truffles and red wine truffle juice
Wellington is a signature dish here, and it is also one of the touchstones of chefs' skills. Crispy skin should have layers and aroma. Beef cooked twice should be accurately controlled for its ripeness, and mushroom sauce should be particular. Too wet and too dry will affect its taste.
Wellington here is already very popular, and now it's not just to look good. The cylindrical wrapping method can make the crispy skin, foie gras and truffle mushroom sauce more evenly wrap the beef, and the weight of the meat is also more sufficient, and every bite is full of satisfaction.
The bakery can produce excellent products, but the pastry in the restaurant is certainly not bad. The soft and tender meat is matched with the oily goose liver that melts in the mouth, and then matched with the crispy and milky skin, the aroma is overflowing. Black truffle in mushroom sauce, with rich red wine truffle juice, and a glass of Bordeaux red wine with a slight mineral flavor, has a rich feeling of drinking and eating meat without losing French elegance.
Roasted deep-sea silver cod with Siberian caviar
Smoked cod cauliflower sauce and lobster sauce
In addition, we also tried the newly upgraded roasted silver cod, which is tender, fresh and sweet, with charming smoky aroma. The foamed lobster sauce is delicious and light, and it is eaten with caviar and cheese cauliflower sauce, and the taste is progressive. There are lentils hidden under the fish, which are popular in French cuisine, and increase the pleasure of chewing while being smooth.
Although every dish here is particularly exquisite, many dishes still keep the sincerity of the country pub. If you want to eat more dishes, you can make more friends and open a bottle of good wine.
Meet on a Romantic and Ambitious Night in Paris
The small classical French garden hidden on the small road in Shanghai
This happy French pub is worthy of our name as an "old friend". The boss is also a person with personality. He is not only addicted to studying dishes, but also often comes up with some interesting ideas. After repeated renovations, the restaurant has become more and more exquisite and romantic.
Since its opening in 2117, this French bistro has become a favorite of us and many French friends around us. From the natural outdoor courtyard to the exquisite retro bistro now, we have witnessed the growth here.
The once small open-air garden with southern French style has become more warm and romantic, but it has always been green and natural. Like the exquisite garden restaurant in Paris. Carefully sculpted works of art, romantic and classical candlesticks, every flower and green plant are just right.
In addition to the small garden outside, walking into an indoor room with a fireplace is like walking into an elegant French country pub. Impressionist oil paintings are hung on the wall, and many exquisite antiques and handicrafts are displayed in the room, with the history and stories formed by time accumulation.
Surprisingly, new lights are added here, and the soft white light is cast on everyone's table, which can make the dishes present a more exquisite and attractive side, and the photos are better, which is a very intimate little detail.
The small details in the store are not limited to these. The R-shaped Logo full of natural feeling, the decoration of wine corks, and even the external walls are made of oysters, which are attached to conch shells one by one.
