Here’s your mid-week InstaNom to help you over the hump:
Republique is the hotly anticipated new venture from chef Walter Manzke (Church and State, Petty Cash). The restaurant, sitting in a beautiful space that previously housed Campanile, serves up modern, market-driven bistro fare for dinner (post to come!). Breakfast service isn’t yet fully up and running but, in the mean time, they have a bakery with a mouth-watering selection of pastries. Examples: this Sticky Pecan Bun, Orange Pistachio Strawberry Jam Scone, and Strawberry Corncake that taste as good as they look. This spot is quickly becoming my new favorite restaurant.
