The elegantly muted stone grey tones are washed in bright natural light, in stark contrast to the usual amber warmth from the glow of its modern light fixtures at dinner revealing another facet to Bistrot Le Coucou's many faces. It's time for brunch at Bistrot Le Coucou with the new Parisian Brunch menu...
The allure of indulgent sweet notes and comforting savory bites in between breakfast and lunch remains as popular as ever. Admit it, "brunch" just has a much better ring to it than say, "lunch." And that short window in between meals offers unique renditions for tasty bites and a culinary style all its own. Luis Martinez takes on this popular mealtime tradition with that elegant French flair with the Parisian Brunch at Bistrot Le Coucou...
"Let's do brunch." Several options come to mind at the mere mention of brunch, but
Luis Martinez presents a strong case for
Bistrot Le Coucou with his repertoire of curated French-inspired comfort dishes that's perfect for business lunches, casual meetings or leisurely afternoons. And
Bistrot Le Coucou unveils yet another layer in its colorful weave becoming the perfect stage for the midday meal tradition (for more on Bistrot Le Coucou, see my previous post
A Very French Affair At Bistrot Le Coucou from February this year).

...as the first dish from the curated menu by Luis Martinez is served...
The Lobster Roll (P 1,500) with tender, juicy and succulent lobster draped in creamy citrus mayonnaise, crisp celery, dill and briny herring pearls in toasted buttery brioche is the impressive opening salvo from the new Parisian Brunch menu by Luis Martinez at Bistrot Le Coucou. Paired with crisp fries, the Lobster Roll brings fresh and clean yet indulgent flavors to the palate with each bite followed by a briny sweetness and buttery finish.
Each ingredient complements the other from the herbaceous and pronounced citrus hints of dill, the vibrant burst of bold flavors from herring pearls, the fresh snap of the lobster with each bite to the buttery notes of the delicately crisp toasted brioche and the creamy finish of the citrus mayonnaise draping the palate with a lingering luscious richness. This is pure indulgence on a roll.
And there's just no better way to start your day than with the Lobster Roll at Bistrot Le Coucou paired with refreshing libations. Light yet satisfying and full of flavor, the Lobster Roll sets the tone for the rest of your day on a high and positive note.
But let's keep the good times and good vibes rolling with more from the Parisian Brunch menu at Bistrot Le Coucou, like the Smoked Salmon Flatbread (P 650) with silky and buttery slabs of salmon, crème fraîche, chopped shallots, organic boiled egg, capers, dill, honey and herring pearls on delicately crisp flatbread.
Each crisp bite brings a medley of contrasting flavors and textures from the buttery melt-in-your-mouth salmon, the silky smooth and luscious finish of the crème fraîche, the bold flavorful bite of the shallots, capers and dill, the richness of the egg and bright briny burst from the herring pearls in a perfectly tight and seamless weave. The freshness of the ingredients add to the weave of rich and lavish flavors.
Simple yet comforting, the Smoked Salmon Flatbread just hits the spot with its delectable play on fresh flavors and textures.
Luis Martinez then recreates a French classic with the Croque Monsieur (P 750), a leveled up French rendition of the familiar ham and cheese sandwich staple. But leave it to the French to take the ham and cheese sandwich up a notch with premium French ham, Gruyére Béchamel cheese on toasted buttery brioche topped with more Gruyére Béchamel cheese.
The subtle salty hints of the French ham are elegantly smoothened by the Gruyére Béchamel cheese completed by the buttery finish of the lightly crisp brioche for another elegant option from the Parisian Brunch menu.
If your brunch cravings leans toward something sweet, the Golden White Chocolate French Toast (P 650) with pillow soft brioche rolls served with maple syrup, seasonal fresh fruits and whipped cream is the perfect pick.
The cloud-like texture of the soft brioche with its delicately crisp edges becomes the perfect vessel for all the white chocolate, thick maple syrup and silky smooth whipped cream goodness to start your day right at Bistrot Le Coucou. The fresh seasonal fruits complete the dish.
Other equally tempting options in the new Parisian Brunch menu by Luis Martinez at Bistrot Le Coucou include the Croque Madame (P 780) topped with fried egg and the French Style Mac And Cheese (P 995) with Gruyére and Comté Béchamel.
