Marquise da Mobler
A brunch spot with a garden that feels like a secret escape. The French toast with poached pear and coconut yogurt is a favorite, moist, balanced, and not overly sweet. If you prefer savory, the Vietnamese pulled pork sandwich or the sweet potato and shrimp tartine are solid choices. It gets busy and some items sell out fast, so coming early is a good idea.
