La Nouvelle République's healthy brunch buffet

The healthy, gourmet brunch at theHotel La Nouvelle République is a hit every Sunday.

Word of mouth has been spreading through Paris' vegetarian and vegan communities for several months now, and as the brunch is open to a maximum of 30 people, all it takes is a group and a bunch of girlfriends coming for an EVJF to fill the room.

The highlight of this all-you-can-eat brunch is chef Natasha Colle's tasty, healthy dishes, whichenergize and put you in a good mood, and the general atmosphere is one of celebration and relaxation. But as soon as we arrive, we're surprised by the music: on this day, African musicians play the kora, in an atmosphere worthy of a massage parlour. The good vibes make us let go of our annoyances in a matter of seconds.

On arrival, we are informed that the entire kitchen is"Fait Maison", 100% vegetarian. Only the fruit juices and hot drinks are not homemade, which is a pity...

Then, when we arrive at our table, a waiter directs us to the buffet room, which is set aside. We discover some super original recipes: pancakes with chia seeds, homemade hummus, potato salad seasoned with parsley, spinach shoots with orange zest and pumpkin seeds, cereal salad with roasted carrots, pomegranate and ginger, scrambled eggs with smoked paprika, carrot cake, light fruit tarts and so on.

The recipes are very fragrant, and you could take the eggs back all day (or just leave with the hot plate) because they're so creamy and well seasoned with paprika, and the chef proves that it's all about the seasoning. The spinach shoots are a perfect example: you wouldn't expect such a mouth-watering flavor with orange zest, and yet!

Of course, some recipes are a little flawed, like the avocado toast, which lacks avocado and deliciousness, or the croissants, which look industrial despite the promise of 100% homemade. We're saddened when we see the waiters open a bottle of industrial orange juice to fill the carafe, but overall, the brunch is very satisfying.
