L'Epicerie Gourmande

Christian and Valerie Nervegno, French owners of L'epicerie Gourmande, opened the first branch in Alabang. They wanted to let customers enjoy a brasserie, a casual restaurant for friends and family. 

L'epicerie Gourmande has two areas, the grocery area has French food products like cold cuts, imported cheeses, and wines, while the restaurant area has homey interiors and communal dining.

On the menu side, L'epicerie Gourmande has a big serving that is good for sharing, such as the Le Plateau du Traiteur, a mixed cold cut and cheese selection served with bread and condiments. Pair the platter with a choice of wine like the French Wine Degustation. 

The Farandole du Saucisses is another popular choice from their special platters, made up of the five best plump French sausages served with steaming oven-roasted potatoes. They also have Les Speciales a la Truffle made of creamy pasta that children will love.

Besides their impressive wine, cold cuts, and cheese selections, L'epicerie Gourmande also has fresh bread. The restaurant gets its bread delivered fresh daily from a nearby boulangerie.

A traditional "French Epicerie-Buvette" where you can shop, eat and drink from morning to late evening.

It was back in 1951, just after the second world war, when two friends, Marie and Yolande, decided to open a small shop in the heart of Antibes, a Mediterranean town in the South of France. The two ladies exerted their wholehearted dedication to run a French Épicerie/Buvette, proposing traditional Mediterranean food, groceries, wines, and liquors.

Seventy years later and at ten thousand kilometers from its birthplace, L'Epicerie Gourmande proposes traditional dishes from southern France, other Mediterranean countries, and the Philippines.

Making a difference and keeping people safe.
