Bistrot La Minette launches brunch lunch, with eggs

Since the desire to get down on egg-based dishes while potentially hung over in the sunlight is steadfast in any language, Bistrot La Minette (623 S. Sixth St.) has decided to roll out weekend lunch service.

Bistrot La Minette launches brunch lunch, with eggs

The French don't say "brunch" and they certainly don't "do brunch." (I believe you're automatically excommunicated to New Hampshire if you're caught uttering the B-word on Gallic soil.) But, since the desire to get down on egg-based dishes while potentially hung over in the sunlight is steadfast in any language, Bistrot La Minette (623 S. Sixth St.) has decided to roll out weekend lunch service beginning on Oct. 8. Running Saturdays and Sundays from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., La Minette lunch features a tight selection of starters and plats principaux — see the oeufs au plat (above), accompanied by a 4-ounce NY strip, red wine sauce and "Peggy's potatoes" (named for chef/owner Peter Woolsey's wife) — plus sides, desserts and proper brunch lunch-with-eggs beverages like Bloody Marys. See the menu in full on BLM's site, and please do not special-request huevos rancheros from the kitchen.

    Brunch has actually become quite popular in Paris, at least. Viva le brunch!
