Tour De France
Presenting a Gastronomic Tour de France at Marcel's Bistro
For the past twenty-eight years, Marcel's has been taking the time to introduce its customers to uncommonly good, authentic French food; nothing pretentious, just fine food coupled with fine wines.
Now "The Bistro Upstairs" is traveling France in a new way and we invite you to share this experience in the best way possible, gastronomically. Every month, we will feature authentic dishes, appetizers, main courses and deserts, from a different region of France, each with its own distinctive gastronomic flavour. Of course, specially selected wines to compliment the region and the dish will be available by the glass or by the bottle.
