P A T E S  E T  T R A D I T I O N S

52 Havemeyer Street, Brooklyn 11211


This cute, colorful and bright corner French restaurant is A-mazing. The crepes both savory and sweet are divine and the staff. THE STAFF!!!! The decor is cheerful and quaint. 
I tried the 'Le Berger' (figs, goats cheese, caramelized onions) and cherished every bite as it brought back memories of Paris.  All crepes are made with organic buckwheat flour but the menu is not limited to this. Gourmet salads, pastas and the socca - a delightful yet simple savory crepe appetizer make this menu maje and more.

Life is uncertain, eat dessert first. 



I would call this place a taste of France creation in New York. An authentic patisserie where French delicacies are made. Choc full of pastries, macarons, cookies, cakes, tarts which are all equally unforgettable. The perfect accompaniment to a picnic at McCaren just around the corner.

Menu

Foodswings is such a major place. And EVERYYYTHING is 100% Vegan. Vegan mac and cheese with vegan 'chicken' drumsticks, vegan veggie sliders, vegan burgers, vegan nachos, vegan fish and chips, vegan hot and cold sandwiches, salads, pizza, cupcakes, ice-cream........What else? 


Foodswings basically brings to us all the food we shouldn't eat but in a vegan form. 
The atsmosphere is kinda cold and casual, but very indie. Located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn you will find it just minutes walk from the L train at Bedford or Lorimer. So into it.
