La Madeleine on Jefferson

Nothing gourmet about this place, but it does have some solid, stick to your ribs dishes. I was able to walk right up and get a Quiche Lorraine and a Potato Gallette right off the hot line with a cup of French roast to go with. Not as exciting as The Tea Room in Covington, but solid.

Now they do cook to order as well, sandwiches, breakfast plates, crepes–but I’ve always just run in and run out. What is really amazing about this place is how they play the little French tunes at just the right volume to make the dining room sound like the middle of a mall. Don’t believe me? Go check it out for yourself. They’ve also got some pretty sweet looking pastries, but I was too full to try anything else.
