On a recent visit to Smith Street in Brooklyn, one of the notable sites was the plethora of French restaurants. If you have an itch for a French cafe experience, this area is definitely one of the places to go. For brunch we went to Provence en Boite. Part bakery part restaurant this place has some eye popping desserts. I had to tear myself away from the display with an assortment of delicate cookies, tarts, and oh so cute marzipan veggies. The food was good with the expected richness of French food and brunch and I noticed they served cafe lattes in those HUGE latte bowls, perfect to sip over the morning paper. Too bad I didn’t order it….dang. I definitely want to come back to snag some pastries and try more dinner type food.
