Everyone knows Mariage Frères and its teas, France's leading historical importer. Their teas are always a guarantee of quality. But few people know that the company's tea rooms also offer a fine savoury menu. Marrying teas and dishes is what Mariage Frères offers us to treat ourselves to.
This time, we went to discover their new brunch menu. And yes, the great thing about Mariage Frère is that there isn't just "one" choice of brunch, but 4, and what's more, you can enjoy them all week long. Isn't that hot? Why limit yourself to Sundays when you want to brunch on Saturdays or during the vacations?
All you have to do is visit one of the lounges from 12:00 to 19:00 to enjoy it. Brunch consists of fresh fruit juices, scones and muffins or warm brioche toast, accompanied by extra tea jellies, a signature dish from the house, your choice of tea from over 800 varieties and a tea treat from the Chariot de Pâtisseries Mariage Frères .
For our part, we opted for the cosy, colonial-style setting of the Salon de thé on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Here are all the addresses of restaurants and tearooms in Paris.

If you're a fan of foie gras, try this one. Just the right amount of melt-in-your-mouth texture with a Lili Muguet tea twist, it's a refreshing change of pace.
Of course, we finish with your choice of pastries from the cart. Will you be tempted by the Mont Blanc, the blueberry tart or the brand-new "Neige de Muguet"? Cream of lichee flavored with white tea, sweet pastry and raspberry, this is our favorite.
In short, this is a lovely brunch that's a must-try!
Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
