r
Restaurants in Alsace traditionally have a more
formal dining room as well as a casual dining room
known locally as a weinstube or brasserie. There,
diners may enjoy traditional, hearty Alsatian
dishes accompanied by local wine in a warm and
relaxing atmosphere. These friendly establishments
are immensely popular with Alsatians and visiting
them is always the best part of my trips back to
Alsace. I opened Jacques’ Brasserie at L’Auberge
Chez François to bring the tastes and comforts of
the Alsatian brasserie here to Great Falls.
The menu and decor at Jacques’ Brasserie are a
special tribute to my father, François Haeringer,
who opened the original Chez François in Washington D.C in 1954. Many of the recipes I use here at
the brasserie come from a notebook of handwritten
recipes my father brought with him when he
first moved from France to the United States.
The dining room is furnished with hand-painted,
ceramic-topped tables that Papa had built, in the
Alsatian style many years ago. The copper on the
walls comes from my father’s vast collection of
traditional copperware and the wall behind the
banquette and Jacques’ Bar Rouge are upholstered
in red paisley fabric that my father purchased in
large bolts on a trip back to France. These items
are part of my family’s heritage and the legacy of
L’Auberge Chez François.
My wish is for you to experience the best of
traditional Alsatian cuisine on your next visit to
Jacques’ Brasserie.
Bon appétit
Chef Jacques
