L’esquisse

We were brought here for Easter Brunch by a local who had been there before.
First off… where are you supposed to park???
It’s the restaurant inside the property of the museum and is surrounded by a hilly park. Beautiful scenery and views but there only seems to be employee parking.
We parked a mile up the hill and walked all the way down. We were seated right away. A little tight for seating but there was another room that is larger than the first room where we got seated.
The server was great… even though the local spoke french, we didnt and the server spoke to us in great english.
They brought us blood orange juice which was so flavorful and fresh!
I ordered a cappuccino, salmon benedict and it came with a proper basket of breads and pastries. This consists of a mini chocolate croissant, raisin round roll and french bread.
Both my hubby and his daughter ordered the traditional eggs plate that came with beans and bacon! It looked great and they said it was very good. Apparently beans are popular for breakfast.
Brunch was sophisticated and classy. Food was fresh and tasty. About $ 35 francs a person which is a bargain!
We opted not to have dessert but instead another round of cappuccinos. We walked through the park on the path trail and it was more scenic than the way we came down on the street.
Very steep hills though!

The location is great and the brunch really good.
You can eat either inside or outside and the restaurant is right next to the musee de l’hermitage.
It is in the middle of a very beautiful parc where children can also play.
I strongly recommend
