A French twist on comfort food is at the heart of Heather Nath’s plans for her new bistro at 522 Franklin St. The restaurant enlivens the historic site that has housed retails spots as well as Elk’s and Eagles lodges. As part of the city’s arts district, the bistro is bringing dishes, such as beef tartare and escargot as well as comfort foods created with the flavors of French dining. Bringing new life to historic buildings continues to lay the foundation for a new and exciting future for the city’s restaurant scene and cultural offerings.
