Ooh La La!
French cuisine in Nashville? I must be dreaming! But my eyes are open! Provence Cafe and Bakery has captured the essence of a typical French cafe.
Provence Breads and Cafe is nestled in the heart of Hillsboro Village.
Tucked between whimsical fascinations such as BookManBookWoman and Pangea, you will find an intimate cafe that will transport you to a place where brie and baguettes are king.
Provence is the perfect place for a quick snack, yummy lunch date or even some dessert.
I popped in a week ago and helped myself to Provence’s exquisite sampling of the french classic Eggs Benedict.
I give it rave reviews.
It was an excellent presentation of eggs cooked to perfection, topped with a succulent Hollandaise sauce to finish.
The meal ended on a note much like it would in Paris with a sweet and crisp macaroon. (A light baked confection much like a margarine type cookie).
It was, as the French say, “un manger parfait!”
Next time you are craving a taste of authentic French fare, check out Provence and have a bit of Paris right here in the heart of Nashville.
Bon appétit!
