A NEW GENRE OF MOTION PICTURE… TO MAKE YOU THINK AND FEEL.
Set during a single day and night in a Milan where steel and glass skyscrapers are going up and old buildings being pulled down, it opens with a disillusioned novelist and his embittered wife visiting their dying friend, a leftwing critic. ×
La notte
the calm before the storm
La Note (Berkeley, CA) - Since we were already sharing that awesome Brioche - which was ordered at my request - I wisely decided to order one thing, which was pancakes. Having had the oatmeal raspberry pancakes before (which my friend ordered that day), I decided to go with the creme fraiche. I really appreciate creme fraiche after making it at home. It can be sweet or savory. It’s a creamier version of sour cream and a little fattier, but it doesn’t have as strong of a sour flavor. I personally love mixing sweet and sour, so this was a great addition to my pancakes!
My friend ordered the Ratatouille with spicy lamb sausage. It’s a Provencal style vegetable stew with eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes and savory herbs sprinkled with fresh grated Parmesan cheese, served over rosemary couscous. I am very tempted to order this next time since it looked so good, especially with all of that grated cheese!

La Note (Berkeley, CA) - I’ve said a lot about La Note in the past (such as here: 1, 2, & 3), but I always come back here when I want a delicious brunch. Even though the wait is long, it’s so worth it. The food is great, the staff is friendly, and the ambiance is cozy. I think French Provencal food is where it’s at, and La Note always does it well.
I actually met up with my old roommates/friends from Berkeley here on a chilly morning. One of my friends got their awesome hot chocolate, which comes in a rather large bowl! We also all split the Toasted Cinnamon Brioche with Lavender Honey. The brioche is thick, but light and fluffy inside, and it tastes so great with the lavender honey. The honey isn’t sickly sweet nor is it overtly floral.
