COGNAC – French
A Parisian brasserie on Second Avenue North in downtown St. Petersburg, open from nine every morning for croissants, pain au chocolat and spinach-and-feta feuillete. Brunch brings oeufs benedicte with jambon de Bayonne or snow crab, croque monsieur and madame, and French toast under mixed berries. Dinner turns serious: escargots de Bourgogne, a duo of foie gras, steak frites in green peppercorn sauce, filet mignon flambeed in cognac, Florida grouper with parsnip puree, truite aux amandes, and a shellfish plateau of oysters, clams, snow crab and lobster. Happy hour runs twice daily, mornings and afternoons alike. French cooking, no French attitude.
