? EAT THIS TONIGHT-

La Mie brings Paris to the banks of the Nile. Located in Fairmont Nile City, the restaurant — modeled after a classic French bistro — offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner. If you’re not up for a big meal, there’s always an impressive selection of freshly baked bread, pastries, and desserts.

Nothing like French onion soup to kick it off: Served piping hot, it’s full of flavor and very filling, so it might be best to share if you want to leave room for anything else. The beef tenderloin was well prepared — keeping the meat tender and perfectly paired to the risotto it comes with.

While the food is great, what we’d go back for are the pastries. The chef makes everything fresh early in the morning so we’d recommend going there for breakfast or brunch. His personal favorite is the chocolate eclair, which goes well with their coffee. We also tried the traditional mille feuille which went down quite nicely.

DISCLAIMER- While it is located in the Nile City towers, it’s in the mall section and unfortunately does not have a view of the river. Lackluster vistas aside, the ambience is cozy and welcoming.
