Fancy Fridays are what we're all about over here at 𝑳𝒆 𝑭𝒐𝒖.

If a side of castlevetrano olives served in a throwback crystal ashtray like your mom used to use in the 90s at the smoking section of a restaurant doesn't put the "fine" in dive, then we don't what does.

Come order this with a square pie tonight and you'll be transported back to the 90s. Report back if it did just that.
