I ate there yesterday. It is excellent food of course. Prices are "pay what you want".

Kurt, do I understand that this is similar to the cafe in California (The Same Cafe, I think it is called)...where people pay what they can for a meal?  or work or barter?

Pay what you can or what you will. I don't know about barter but Fabrice is a creative guy.

So, we can add this to the "Making a Difference" thread I started last night?

Fabrice and Fabienne are so creative and clever - their idea is that they want people to enjoy his unique cuisine and you pay what you can and what you think the food is worth - so if one day you have a $8 budget for lunch, you can go - if another day you have $10 or more, same thing or $6.... you get the picture..... I went this week and as usual, I just loved the food!!

Is Fabrice the little cafe/bakery in Watercolor that has the most amazing bread and pastries?  I'm hoping it's still there?  I've still been thinking about it all winter.

Your fine, it's still there, but try Fabrice on 98 near Bayou Bills on the south side of 98.

Ok, I know where that is. I remember passing it last summer but I don't think it was open yet.  I like the outdoor tables at Watercolor.  My dog and I went a few times, he gets an ego boost from all the attention, and I get to increase my butt size.:blink:

Fabrice on 98 is not open. I just got off the phone with Fabrice at Watercolor and was informed the plan was to open the 98 location in September.

Where on 98 is this in relation to the original Fabrice on 98?

It is in the same spot. Another restaurant, Taste of Oz, opened in that location for about three seconds, closed and afterwards Fabrice reopened, then closed and as noted above, will reopen in September for a third go around.

I ate at Fabrice's in WaterColor last weekend and Fabienne(?) suggested that when they reopen the 98 location that they were doing something different there. Does anyone know if its open or what the surprise is?
