FFA, a luxurious apéro mini mart with reasonable prices, has dedicated itself to preserving and diversifying the French tradition of the apéritif—having a snack and drink before dinner to stimulate the appetite. It’s a great spot for a drink with friends, and for cheese and charcuterie boards that go above and beyond.
All things sourced directly directly from artisanal French producers: local craft beer, cured sausages, a handful of cheeses, kettle-cooked potato chips in surprising flavors, crispy roasted chickpeas, socca crisps, and more.
