CLEVELAND, Ohio — Le Marche Clifton has officially opened, operating an all-day French market space next to La Ville Lumière.
Le Marche Clifton, 10431 Clifton Boulevard, hosted its grand opening on Wednesday, Dec. 10. The market offers crepes made to-order and a curated selection of wine, cheese, charcuterie, butter and pantry items.
Meg DiGesare, market manager and marketing director for LVL, and chef Kevin O’Connell, spearheaded the project. It took them a few months to transform the space from a former dentist office into a neighborhood market. It’s connected to the restaurant, with customers able to shop after they eat or vice versa.
“Our goal is to create a space where people feel transported — a place for morning coffee, an afternoon treat, a last-minute bottle of wine, or a beautifully crafted board for a gathering,” DiGesare said.
