Allons!
Chez Nanou, 805 Williamson St.
You can’t go wrong with the savory crepes, like the Parisienne, with ham, mushrooms, béchamel, and Swiss cheese wrapped in a buckwheat crepe, or the Savoyarde, with bacon, potato and onion. Or a nice salade Niçoise.
Bon appétit
La Baguette, 7424 Mineral Point Rd.
The quiche may look simple but the taste is anything but, light and custardy. Another humble favorite is the pain au chocolat.
Mangez bien
Brasserie V, 1923 Monroe St.
Admittedly, it’s Belgian. But here’s your classic brasserie meal of steak frites and moules du jour.
Comme il faut
Sardine, 617 Williamson St.
More classic brasserie food. Warm duck confit salad, a side of braised French lentils and crème brûlée for dessert. C’est magnifique.
