West Palm Beach’s Northwood Village has welcomed two new indie eateries, adding to the district’s eclectic landscape.
Parisian-born brothers Olivier and Edouard Delrieu, who own Petanque backyard bar on Northwood Road, recently opened an al fresco rotisserie restaurant just down the street. Their French Grill House, which took over the former Table 427 space, focuses on meats and fish roasted over woodfire, served with French-style sauces and enjoyed in an open-air courtyard.
Also on Northwood Road, restaurant industry veterans Jon Scott and Colleen Hickey opened Northwood Canteen and Provisions in the former Bistro Bistro space a few months ago. They’ve kept some of the former bistro’s favorites, like the brioche bread and the quiche, but have introduced a more diverse, lunch-focused menu.
There may be no better time than this to go local with your holiday-shopping list. America, after all, has become hyper-local by design, thanks to a pandemic-era life that keeps us close to home.
A locally created gift not only helps indie entrepreneurs and artisans, it lets your intended giftee know you gave their present some thought, even though Christmas is just around the corner. And if your gift recipient is a foodie, your search is not so daunting at all Palm Beach County and environs are full of tasty presents.
