Lafayette's Renaissance Market and Brasserie in the Oil Center is truly an experience for all of your senses. In the market area you are taken on a journey to the shops of Paris for the very finest in one-of-a-kind items for your home or business.

In the Brasserie you are taken on a flavor filled journey to an exotic Mediterranean location by your sense of smell and taste. The table may be in Lafayette but your taste buds and senses are awakened in time honored traditions of Lebanese favorites.

As a participant in this year's Eat Lafayette Campaign, the meal I was treated to not only an exquisite and flavor filled dish but I was also treated to a very personal recipe. The recipe was a family creation for a dish called "hashwit". This very versatile meat mixture is just as at home on top of a fresh green salad as it is on delicious hummus. It can also be served on a onion roll with roasted peppers and it makes a great Lebanese "sloppy joe".

So whether you love to shop, love to eat, or love to win an Cancun Vacation the Renaissance Market and Brasserie in the Oil Center is the shop, the restaurant, and the experience for you.
