Brasserie Central

Multicourse dining has found its way to daytime service at Brasserie Central. Brunch here is a leisurely experience best enjoyed in the outdoor patio, beginning with a bucket of sparkling wine and a carafe of OJ for the table, then sauntering on with generous portions of classic bistro fare like Lyonnaise salad with frisee bacon lardon and a soft-poached egg, and steak frites—hanger steak with shallot sauce and crispy French fries. The ile flotttante, one of six dessert options available, is an airy meringue atop creme anglaise and the perfect French ending.
