Corner Café Food

This food is still served in little bistros in France—refreshing Fennel and Pear Salad with a dressing that includes pumpkin seeds; Fillet of Pork Charcutiére, a sweet pork balanced with an acidic sauce; and Gnocchi Maison, little gnocchi made with potato and cream puff dough. Frozen shards of coffee end the meal as Café au Lait Granité.

2020 Relief Campaign

In 2020, the Jacques Pépin Foundation planned to provide $200,000 in grants. We have now begun to honor pledges with grants to Hot Bread Kitchen and the Food Bank for New York City. To continue this effort, we need your help. For our 2020 Relief Campaign, we are offering a limited number of prints of Jacques' artwork. The need of our country's under-served citizens, and now restaurant workers is greater than ever. Please help us support our partners, fighting on the front lines of hunger relief. Thank you, stay well and be kind.
