Quiche is a cornerstone of French cuisine, originating from the Lorraine region of France. At Café la Reine,
we honor this classic dish by preparing our quiche using traditional French techniques and the finest
ingredients. Each quiche starts with our handmade buttery pastry crust, baked to golden perfection with a
flaky, tender texture. The filling features a luxurious custard made from fresh eggs and cream, whisked to
silky smoothness and combined with carefully selected ingredients that change daily.
What makes our quiche special is the perfect balance of textures and flavors in every slice. The buttery crust
provides a satisfying crunch that gives way to the rich, creamy custard filling. We prepare our quiche fresh
daily, allowing us to feature seasonal ingredients and creative flavor combinations that keep our menu exciting
while maintaining the authentic French character of this beloved dish. Whether served warm or at room
temperature, our quiche delivers consistent quality and exceptional taste.
Daily Feature Varieties
Our quiche varieties change daily, offering you something new to discover with each visit. You might find
classic Quiche Lorraine with bacon and Gruyère cheese, vegetarian options featuring seasonal vegetables and
herbs, or creative combinations that showcase local ingredients. Each variety is thoughtfully crafted to
highlight quality ingredients while maintaining the authentic French preparation that makes quiche such a
versatile and satisfying dish.
Perfect for Breakfast or Lunch
Quiche is the ideal choice for any time of day. Enjoy a warm slice with your morning coffee for a protein-rich
breakfast that will keep you satisfied until lunch. Or pair it with a fresh salad or our daily soup special
for a complete, balanced lunch. The rich custard and flaky crust make quiche both comforting and elegant,
suitable for a quick meal or a leisurely dining experience on our pet-friendly patio.
