Weekend Excursion: Vivent Les Crêpes!

20080711-weekend-excursion-bastille-day.jpg

If, by Sunday night, your body still hasn't digested crêpes from the weekend, then your weekend wasn't so successful by Bastille Day terms. We'll also accept Belgian waffles, moules frites, Napoleons, eclairs, or any other foods from a French-speaking nation.

Two major street festivals are happening in two different boroughs. The first in Manhattan on 60th Street between Fifth and Lexington Avenues, hosted by French Institute Alliance Francaise (FIAF) between noon and 6 p.m. The second in Brooklyn on Smith Street between Bergen and Pacific Streets, where many neighborhood favorites like Bar Tabac will dish out food. This event goes a bit later than the midtown one—all day between noon and 10 p.m.

Thank you, French nation, for storming that Bastille so we could eat thin pancakes and stinky cheeses.
