Morreig

Good pastry and good ice cream under one roof is a harder problem than it sounds, and a named professional picked Morreig out for solving it. Three founders — a fermentation specialist from Alsace, a Hofmann-trained pastry chef who taught the subject, and a baker who twice made the French national bread team — opened it on Verdi in 2023 around fermented doughs.

What to order
The browned butter. It is what the professionals name.
