What People Are Saying About Zucco: Le French Diner

The Editor

Karen Hudes

Citysearch

In Short – Zucco, the star-monikered French chef who opened Brooklyn's Cafe Lafayette, hand-built this petite bistro, which holds a bar and tables to seat 18 people. A tin ceiling, a beaded chandelier, boxing photos and fruit crates give it a bohemian feel, enhanced by Zucco's largely French repartee. Classics such as cassoulet, escargots, steak frites and lapin a la moutarde, as well as omelets, Parisian sandwiches and tarte tatin are the menu's bread and butter.
