Le Bon's Pan Bagnat
Lunch couldn't get any better!! That's until another sandwich is created that I love.

Nestled in the heart of Oklahoma City's Innovation District, Le BON CAFÉ Bon Café whispers a secret to those seeking a taste of the French Riviera. It's a secret wrapped in a crusty ciabatta roll; a symphony of flavors known as the Pan Bagnat. A golden-brown baguette, its crust begging to be shattered. Inside, a bed of the freshest peppery arugula awaits, hand-picked and bursting with the essence of Le Bon Café's very own herb garden.

Then comes the melody – high-quality tuna, plump and glistening with the finest olive oil, takes center stage. It's joined by a chorus of Nicoise olives, their salty tang a delightful counterpoint to the tuna's richness. Brined capers add a playful pucker, while a garlicky marinated tomatoes and red onions sing a sweet, sun-drenched tune. Hard-cooked eggs join the party, their creamy texture a welcome harmony.

But the maestro of this culinary concerto is the red-wine-Djon-mustard vinaigrette. Its tangy notes weave through the ingredients, uniting them in a perfect accord. Each bite is a revelation - a taste of the French countryside transported to your plate in Oklahoma City’s Le BON CAFÉ at the Innovation Hall. So, close your eyes, take a bite of Le Bon Cafe's Pan Bagnat, and let yourself be swept away to the sun-drenched shores of Provence. ,

But “Holup”! The magic doesn't stop there. A vibrant layer of fresh roasted heirloom tomatoes, bursting with their sun-kissed sweetness, blankets the dough. A generous sprinkle of fresh aged Parmesan cheese adds a salty, nutty depth that elevates the entire experience. But wait, there's more! Nestled within this symphony of flavors lies a treasure trove of Italian delights. YES! we're talking about layers upon layers of thinly sliced Genoa Salami, Italian Pepperoni, smoked turkey, and smoked ham, each with its own unique personality, mingling with creamy provolone, and smoked Gouda cheeses that ooze with satisfaction.

The party doesn't end with the fillings. Oh no, this sandwich is a serious flavor fiesta. Our fresh house-made garlicky aioli adds a vibrant kick, while the olive tapenade brings in a briny, salty counterpoint.

Another Le BON CAFÉ, handheld breakfast masterpiece. A crusty crumpet, its golden surface dappled with crispy ridges, beckons you to take a bite. Crack it open to reveal a symphony of flavors. Savory country sage sausage, flecked with flecks of green, releases an intoxicating aroma of herbs and spices. Next, a layer of herb frittata egg, its fluffy texture a canvas for vibrant flecks of green.

Each bite is a perfect harmony of textures and tastes - the richness of the sausage, the airy comfort of the egg, the sharp tang of white cheddar, and the sweet and spicy kiss of the sauce, all creates an entire new breakfast conversation piece.

STILES PARK
The public realm consists of two outdoor components available to the entire community: Stiles Park and a pedestrian walkway. Stiles Park opened as Oklahoma City’s first park in 1901. Convergence’s development plan includes a redefined layout of Stiles Park that will activate the usability for the public community by providing green, lawn-like space and an amphitheater for outdoor gatherings. The 100-foot-high Beacon of Hope will remain in its current location and be a monumental pillar at Convergence’s entrance.

With one end anchored by the Beacon of Hope, the pedestrian walkway is strategically placed between the office tower and proposed Innovation Hall, creating connectivity between OU’s University Research Park and OSU Discovery. The connectivity between both universities is key to building synergy for Convergence and the entire Innovation District.
