The Smith
The Smith is a casual “American Brasserie” (I love the sound of “Brasserie” for some reason), they offer breakfast, lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch. The inside is bright without being too bright, to bring out that cozy atmosphere. The interior is rather simple and clean, with nice contrast of white against dark wood. They are […]
Vive La Crêpe!
I always enjoyed crepe since I was little. Growing up, I only knew the sweet kinds, but it is great that there are so many different kinds of crepes out there. Especially when you want a light something, but flavorful and not bad for you kind, I always think of crepes, the savory kind. Vive […]
