Food Scene

Le Fond

Since Sel de Mer closed, I sought a low-key restaurant unafraid of contemporary French dishes with prodigal sauces. 'Fond' is colloquialism for 'stock' and richly found in their rural, deep flavors.

Falansai

For a nice cross-cultural bite, Falansai is Français meets Vietnamese cuisine; it is a nice tangent away from authentic French-Viet culinary dishes and more health conscious than traditional dishes.

Pates et Traditions

Casual crêpe place, Pâtes et Traditions is a French countryside eatery with a Mediterranean proclivity. While known for crêpes, I would not rule out their fettuccini provençale or pâtes/pasta dishes.
