What Maurice is known for
European-style luncheonette in downtown Portland (opened 2013) from chef Kristen D. Murray - French-Norwegian pastries, fika-style coffee service, and a short savory lunch menu.
Maurice, at 921 SW Oak Street in downtown Portland, opened in 2013 as a French-Scandinavian luncheonette from chef Kristen D. Murray, who drew on her Norwegian heritage and love of France for the concept (and named the restaurant after her pet rabbit). The format bridges a pastry shop and cafe: currant-and-rosemary scones and anisette-chocolate brioche sit alongside a Swedish-style 'fika' coffee break menu, with lunch service after 11 a.m. offering dishes such as pigeon bisteeya, radishes with butter, Norwegian meatballs, and grapefruit-cured gravlax. Reported hours are Wednesday-Saturday, 11am-3pm.
