French-inspired Bar Pigalle opens in Little Paris
Bar Pigalle, a French-inspired restaurant with a Midwestern twist, has opened in The Carlton Lofts in Brush Park, a fitting location considering the neighborhood鈥檚 old nickname of Little Paris. Mixologist Travis Fourmont and sommelier Joseph Allerton, who met at the gone-but-not-forgotten Roast, joined forces on this new restaurant, which features interesting takes on French bistro fare such as Coney-style steak frites and French street tacos with vadouvan hummus. The cocktails are equally as creative and unique, including the Byrrh and Tonic, with Byrrh Grand Quinquina, a fortified red wine with quinine, interesting substitution for gin. 2915 John R St., Detroit; 313-497-9200;
