Agnés B’s Le Pain Grillé

111 Leighton Rd., Causeway Bay;
011-852-2577-2718.
New Value
Booked two months ahead for dinner—even before it opened last year—this in-store commissary has hit a chord with Francophiles, film-industry types and ladies who lunch. Served in a Causeway Bay space with authentically worn tile floors, a zinc-topped bar and a glass pastry case overflowing with pâtisseries and baguettes, the bistro staples—croque-monsieur, frisée aux lardons, steak frites—are as good as anyone might find in Paris.

We Loved

Moules marinières; grilled salmon with Choron sauce (tomato-accented béarnaise sauce).

Insider tip
