Patisserie Florentine, the artisan bakery and petit bistro, is expanding with a new shop in Fort Lee.

Construction is underway on 16th Street, replacing the now shuttered Underdog Hot Chicken.

Chef Tomer Zilkha opened his first location in Englewood back in 2013, which has since then expanded to Closter and Hackensack at The Shops at Riverside. Several years ago, the Englewood location was named one of the 10 hottest restaurants by NJ dot com (Read Article).

The menu (View Menu) includes traditional pastries and breads along with breakfast items, salads, sandwiches and more. Zilkha had even added a pizza menu to selection at one point.

There’s no word yet on an opening date.
