At BB we believe in mindful eating. We think about food – all the time. What to eat, when to eat it, where it comes from, how to cook it, how to be more adventurous. And we talk about it too.
From the Grande Fromage down, we know food, and we know you know food too. So join us chez nous, where the conversation starts around the table….
