Have you ever wondered what living like a French local felt like? There’s a new spot in Bushwick that might give you a little taste of the that life. La Cantine has landed in Bushwick: Inspired by the neighborhood-oriented luncheonettes of France, owner Ioana Hercberg and Chef Ray Lyons teamed up to bring those same vibes to Brooklyn.
Hercberg started this journey because she felt like something was missing in the realm of casual quick bites. “I’ve been in living in Bushwick for 10 years and it was hard to find places to have a quick bite that wasn’t a deli or pizza,” Hercberg told Bushwick Daily.
As a French native, Hercberg felt like a luncheonette like La Cantine would fulfill that gap with a menu filled with fresh options that hit the spot.
