Jacques Brasserie | NYC Restaurants
Cititour Review:
My family was in town for a visit and I was looking for a place to take them for brunch. Jacques isn’t a restaurant you’d just happen to stumble upon, as it’s located on a side street, but luckily I had done my research ahead of time to find an establishment that could accommodate 7 adults and a baby without an hour’s wait, and Jacques Brasserie turned out to be exactly what I needed.

Time Out says:
The dining room’s old-world details are gorgeous, and the service is welcoming. The kitchen produces some quirky creations: A tart lemon sauce complements savory foie gras; a thin bed of lasagna supports a colorful medley of shrimp, asparagus, sweet peppers and fresh sage; but fruity duck à l’orange and garlicky prune gnocchi were an odd couple.
$22 Belgian Feast Special at Jacques Brasserie
Moules Frites, aka mussels and fries, is a classic combination. I don’t really get why, but it just works. Originated in Belgium but also very popular in France, the classic combo is now enjoyed in the states as well. When I heard about Jacques Brasserie’s Belgian Feast special, I had to try it out. I mean, mussels, fries and a draft beer for $22? Not bad. Not bad at ALL.

CLAUDINE RENÉE ROLAND PÉPIN never planned to pursue a career in food, much less marry a chef. The American-born daughter of the French master chef Jacques Pépin, Ms. Pépin, 35, said: ”Are you kidding? I’ve seen what those guys do, day in, day out. It’s such a hard life.”
