Surprisingly, La Terrasse sets an unparalleled standard for brunch. Watching the chef casually chatting with the patrons and listening to their anecdotes dissolves La Terrasse's untouchable mystique.
With reasonable prices for … la carte items ($6-$19), the sophisticated menu is just as dazzling as the gourmet buffet ($18.95 per person). While most upscale restaurants trade portions for elegance and presentation, La Terrasse is generous and balanced. The absence of salt and pepper from the table is not at all incidental; the unique flavors render them unnecessary. The freshness and essence of each ingredient remains distinct, even when fused into one of the eatery's harmonious combinations.
The menu offers old favorites such as French toast and omelets, both with an extraordinary twist. Like many people, if you don't like your French toast tampered with you'll be stunned by how great "different" can taste. The delicate pieces of apricot and pistachios infused into the French toast smothered in some syrupy goodness makes you renounce the cinnamon French toast you once loved. The omelet is personally created by Executive Chef David Grear, who captures the creative sophistication of La Terrasse perfectly. When was the last time you had fresh lobster in your omelet?
An occasional treat or a weekend staple, La Terrasse's brunch will leave you wondering, "What is the French word for fabulous"
