Mr Marcel

I love the vibe here. It's very relaxed and casual, but it still feels special. The combination of being in the open air, pulling up to the rich, blond wood bar and lingering for hours over wine, cheese, olives, onion soup -- whatever you want -- it's just too inviting. I always feel zen after an evening at Monsieur Marcel.

The market itself, of course, is awesome. Lots of hard-to-find sauces, condiments and foodstuffs. But the star are the fresh olive bins, which have some of the freshest, most flavorful olives I've found in the whole city. Well worth the price.

Very cozy little French place in the Farmer's Market with simple, french food. Actually one of my favorite French restaurants in town. Favorites are the French onion soup, croque madame and the boeuf bourgiuignon. I love to sit at the counter and people watch over our meal.
