Brunch lovers, a new address has just opened in the 9th arrondissement, where you can enjoy a gourmet, healthy, homemade brunch. The name of this nice little place: Café Mimosa - not to be confused with Café Mimosa des Halles.
Located in a quiet, sunny street , two positive points, Café Mimosa offers a brunch formula every weekend for €29, packed with goodies.
To start, we opt for L'Arbre à Café long coffee, freshly squeezed orange juice and a juice of the day - on this day, apple-lemon - to accompany our tasting of homemade pastries: orange blossom pancakes, banana and honey on one side of the table; carrot cake on the other! But you can just as easily choose marble cake, madeleines, hazelnut/salted butter cookies or homemade granola!
Café Mimosa also makes its own brioches, to be eaten with homemade jam. And we like that.
Then it's time for the savory stuff, with a super-fresh, healthy salad: quinoa, avocado, crunchy zucchini, pink radish, lemon zest, hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds and basil. In this heat, it goes down so well.
Finally, two dishes to choose from in this gourmet brunch: wholemeal bread topped with avocado, grapefruit, crunchy fennel and pumpkin seeds; orscrambled egg caviar (cleverly presented in a caviar box), smoked haddock shavings , panisse fries and baby greens salad. Our heart swayed between the two, so naturally we decided to try both!
A newcomer to Paris, Café Mimosa is up against a host of brunch rivals, and well worth a visit.
Please note that it's been over 4 years since our last visit, so the place and experience may have changed.
