With Paris’ first snow having finally fallen this week and the glacial temperatures keeping things strictly sub-zero along the Seine, we’ve decided to come back to the French part of our brunch Franco-Australien-Californien at Coutume. If you’re a fan of the wintertime flavor, warmth, and heft of a good tartiflette, then you’ll love this week’s hash: Le Montagnard.
We’re going to slather chunks of potatoes in a Reblochon cheese sauce, mix in bits of smokey bacon, and weave it all together with strings of caramelized onion. Of course you’ll get the requisite egg on top, making it part of a balanced hangover cure.
Breakfast burrito, vegetarian frittata, and all the other de rigueur brunch items like oeufs brouillés and Aussie-style home fries will be there, too.

Did you know that Bruce Lee’s Enter the Dragon is called Operation Dragon in France? While many English-to-French movie title translations are worthy of a facepalm or two, we’re fans of a good cultural mish-mash. That’s why this week we’re celebrating the lunar New Year (gung hay fat choy, by the way) by making this week’s Hash of the Week Chinese style.
