Some dishes do not need to shout.

Ham. Egg. Gruyère. Buckwheat galette.

The Classique Complète is simple for a reason: it works.

Savory, crisp, comforting, and very useful when your Friday lunch plans need a little structure.

Maison Breizh is not hiding.

She is simply tucked politely behind Bastille.

Look for the blue sign at 1205 Pendleton Street, follow the smell of butter and buckwheat, and you’ll find us serving lunch Wednesday–Saturday, 11:30am–2:30pm.

A little Breton detour. No passport, no airport, no tiny rental car required.

Buckwheat isn't wheat.
Despite the rather unhelpful name. 😉

Known as sarrasin in France, buckwheat is what gives traditional Breton galettes their distinctive earthy flavor and beautiful darker color.

It's the foundation of the galette — not just a substitute for regular flour.

And once you've had one hot from the bilig, crisp at the edges and filled with something delicious...you understand why Brittany has been doing this for centuries.

Why Brittany?
Because Maison Breizh didn't start with “we should open another restaurant.”
It started with an obsession.
Brittany has its own food, traditions and rhythm — and galettes are very much part of that culture.
So I went to Saint-Malo and trained at L'Atelier de la Crêpe, spending two very intense weeks learning the craft properly.

Buckwheat. The bilig. The movement. The folds. The traditions.
Then I came home.
And eventually, Maison Breizh followed.
Inspired by Brittany, made for Old Town.

Crêpe? Nope.
Meet the galette — the savory Breton cousin of the crêpe.
Made with buckwheat, galettes are a specialty of Brittany in northwestern France: earthy, crisp around the edges and made for savory fillings.

Start with the classic:
La Complète
egg • ham • Gruyère
Simple. Very French. Very Breton.
And considerably easier than flying to Saint-Malo for lunch. 😉
