Restaurant Review: La Brioche Lagos

Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the love in my last post, I really appreciate it and look forward to all the exploits we will make in 2017.

If you watch my Insta Stories, you would know I had Brunch at La Brioche a couple of weeks ago.

I went with my cousin, Oyinade, who took the pictures in this post.

I first heard of La Brioche in 2015 when I got invited to a Champagne Party at the cutest parisienne-style pastry shop ever.

I put a picture of the IV and package it came with on Instagram, check it out here. I wrote about the experience here and visited them a number of times last year to order mini pastries for work meetings.

I really wanted to take Sharon there when she visited Lagos but sadly they were closed for fumigation, shout out to them for maintaining health and safety standards though.

Oyinade and I got freshly squeezed juice to start.

She got watermelon and I got pineapple.

The drinks were refreshing and the consistency was perfect, like a slushy.

I love how the tables are laid so perfectly with beautiful china and gold cutlery.

We started off with a Meat Pie and a Chicken Pie.

It came in a rustic wooden tray with pretty pink napkins.

I always get a Meat Pie & Chicken Pie when I go to La Brioche, they are so delicious and well made with a nicely seasoned filling.

If you're having a party and need canapé's different from the norm, you should definitely order their mini meat pies and chicken pies.

The lady attending to us said we must try their flourless cake which is made from almonds.

It looked like chocolate cake and was very decadent, you need to try it.

The whipped cream and cherry on top went so nicely with it.

I got the Brioche french toast with a Berry Salad and Maple Syrup.

It costs N2,200 and is well worth the money

The Berries were so fresh, jeez.

The French toast was just the way I like it, not too soggy, not too eggy, just right.

My cousin got the Lobster Benedict which came with Lobster, Poached Egg & Hollandaise Sauce on Brioche Bread.

Doesn't it look beautiful.

She absolutely enjoyed it and found it very filling.

It cost N3,250.

They also offer the Crab Benedict which costs N2,550

They have a wide variety of tea's available.

They sell Freshly made Bread too.

The Baguette was calling my name but I was too full to give it a try.

Their tarts are so pretty.

I love food that isn't only great to photograph but great tasting too.

Don't you just want to taste that Lemon tart?

The apple pie looks like something out of a children's story book like Little Red Riding Hood.

The criss cross is so perfect.

You can tell that a lot of time, effort and love goes into making their pastries.

They have coffee cake and carrot muffins, French Orange Cake & Mini Loaves too.

They had Christmas Cakes on Display as we went there just before Christmas.

La Brioche is one of those hidden treasures that make you feel like you aren't in Lagos.

From the Decor to the ambiance, the customer service and the menu offerings, everything is top-notch.
