Since 1880, when Léonard Lipp and his wife opened their legendary brasserie, four capital letters have graced Boulevard Saint-Germain. They are embroidered on the front of this timeless deep black cap, a finely made, high-quality piece built for years of wear.
On the back, a nod to one of the menu's iconic lines, unchanged for sixty years: No Salad As A Meal. Dieters, consider yourselves warned.
Lipp
In the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Brasserie Lipp welcomes its guests every day, from 9 am to 2 am, in a unique setting that preserves the charm and French aesthetic of the early twentieth century. Founded in 1880 by Léonard Lipp at 151 boulevard Saint-Germain, it has become a temple of Parisian gastronomy. It serves traditional, bourgeois brasserie cooking in which the quality of the produce is paramount, today overseen by chef Pascal Jounault. Among its celebrated specialities are Bismarck herring, brandade de morue, choucroute garnie, roast chicken, blanquette de veau and tête de veau.
