Sophisticated Sweetness

This is brunch at its most decadent. Our Chef’s French Toast was created for the diner who wants their breakfast to feel like a five-star dessert. It’s a sophisticated take on a childhood favorite, layering complex citrus and berry flavors to create a dish that is as beautiful to look at as it is to eat.

The Craft: The Art of the Batter

We start with thick-cut Italian bread, ensuring it’s sturdy enough to soak up our signature batter without losing its fluffy center. Once grilled to golden perfection, we layer on the luxury: a rich orange Cognac reduction, our tart and sweet blackberry compote, and a bright, zesty lemon whipped cream. It’s a masterclass in citrus-infused brunch.

The Point Nine Experience: A “Treat Yourself” Morning

If you’re celebrating a special occasion—or just a really great Saturday—this is your dish. It’s elegant, “cutesy,” and undeniably elevated. Grab a table on the patio, order a Chambong, and let the orange Cognac and lemon cream turn your morning into an event.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is there real alcohol in the glaze? The Cognac is cooked down into a glaze, leaving behind a rich, complex flavor while most of the alcohol burns off.
  • What makes the whipped cream “lemon”? We fold fresh lemon zest and juice into our house-whipped cream for a bright, citrusy finish.
