No, not the markets in France. In Durham, North Carolina. Another one of my favorites that I feel like everyone should know about: Rue Cler. This French bistro is a favorite for Sunday brunch (their croque madame is lovely), but really, any time of day, this place is consistent.
In addition to their amazing fries and mussels are their savory crepes, like this duck confit one.
But of course, you can never start a meal here without their hot, piping, perfect beignets.

With a flair for spontaneity, pizzazz, creative excellence and her own unique sense of aesthetic grace and perspective, we have our very dear friend, Belinda (or B, to some of us). Although an incredibly accomplished professional and career woman, B’s down-to-earth approach and demeanor transcends all scenarios, communities and people. She manifests, in her day-to-day, the essence of the word “Zomppa” as demonstrated by her extraordinary commitment to creating sustainable and positive change for us and future generations to come. She’s asked for a dog every year since she was five. Check out Belinda’s work on global education research and coaching: www.hummingbirdrcc.com or more about her portfolio www.belindachiu.com.
I had beignets with a pint of cappuccino at this place just 3 weeks ago! This place rocks!!!!
Yum. You are lucky to have your very own Rue Cler.
Wow, they all look delicious. I wish I’m living near by Rue Cler! I would love a plate of those perfect beignets!
The duck confit crepe at Rue Cler is AMAZING! It’s all but worth a return trip to Durham to dine there again.
