Gabriel Aubry’s Fuego Food
Mon, 27 November 2006 at 3:23 pm
Finally made it out to Cafe Fuego for brunch yesterday with Audrey. Here’s what we ordered:
- Ensalada Verde Mixta: A harmonious blend of crispy mesclun greens, hearts of palm & skinned carrots accompanied with a light garlic glaze
- Cubano Sandwich: A concert of warm pork & ham celebrated with mustard, pickles & perfectly aged Swiss cheese, on crisp Cuban bread
- Cafe Fuego Macaroni de Queso: Baked macaroni with the symmetry of bubbly manchego, spirited mozzarella and smooth cream cheese
The mac & cheese was a tad soupy but tasty. The salad was good. But the Cuban sandwich was over-the-charts YUMMY. Definitely going back for seconds and trying the other dishes out too.
Halle Berry’s boyfriend, Gabriel Aubry, is the co-owner of Cafe Fuego with business partner Stephane Bibeau. Cafe Fuego is located @ 9 St. Marks Place, New York, NY 10003.
And be sure to check out the Cafe Fuego bathroom. There are choice newspaper clippings of Halle and Gabriel plastered on the walls including their last mention in Page Six.

Why on earth is there a clipping of Halle in bathroom! Everyday I swear this dude sounds more and more like an opportunist! It’s a official I can’t stand this dude!
Actually the clippings in the bathroom is just the right place for them, because their relationship is sh*t! LOL! And needs to be flushed down the toilet.
If Halle thought to put the clippings in the bathroom, then she is more white washed than I thought. First she mainly has white dudes f*ck her on camera, now I guess she wants it in her real life as well.
Yeah I said it!
Halle Berry’s mother is white, remember? Here we go again…. probably another black male who thinks Halle is supposed to stay within her limits by only dating the BLACK MAN. You’re not winning any points by portraying yourselves as racists. You guys need to go somewhere. Halle is dating a kind, gorgeous gentleman (as far as we know) who is a successful model and who has opened a restauraunt, and you are having a fit. I’ll say it again: Meanwhile, on the other side of town, there is Ice-T, a rapper notorious for rapping about race in America, who married a blonde bimbo named Coco who flashes her ginormous boobs in every photo, looking like a sl#t. Ice-T is stepping out all over town with that. Where is the protest? That is okay, huh? The double standards are appalling!
Please don’t tell me, “We’re not talking about Ice-T, we’re talking about Halle.” Ice-T is only one of many. Do we need to go down the list?
hmmm…. all of this food talk has me thinking about brown sugar!!!!!

Couldn’t careless about the hype about the restaurant or Aubry’s personal life with Berry, but does this place really have good food while it’s still getting mixed reviews. Have had several friends eat at the place at different times and they ordered typical Cuban dishes and had mixed reviews on the food and service. Some said that the food didn’t live up to the pictures on the restaurants website. They did have some of the same reactions as some of the posters about the tackiness and opportunistic approach of Aubry with the clippings of them in the bathrooms. I hope things improve for the restaurant and having it succeed on it’s on without using Halle as pr. I hope she really didn’t give him any money for the restaurant and if she did good God I hope she had him sign a demand/promissary note at the bank so she can protect her investment in the event she did really invest in the place.
The more I read about the place and Aubry’s actions it really leaves a sour taste in my mouth, sorry folks, he’s turning smarmy to me when I kinda sorta thought he was okay looking for a model. Don’t think I will be visiting the place anytime soon
To each his/her own. Whatever happens to the restaurant or them is all cause and effect. Both may succeed or not. Only time will tell regardless of what we may wish for them.
That picture of them really gives me the creeps, something sinister. Sorry, gals. I am starting to not think that they look sooooooooo dreamy anymore
Touche LOL3…yep Boris’s mother is German and his father is from Ghana West Africa.
Eww why pretend? You NEVER thought they looked dreamy. You’re just doing your inspection, trying to find SOMETHING, ANYTHING to cast this couple in a negative light.
Thankssays, you are a true racist *****. Howgauche, the very fact that you used the word ‘class’ proves that you do not have any. GoHalle, you are right on target!
Unless, I am missing something. Re-read the posts. Are you just being a troll and try to start something–looking like you grabbing anything. Nothing racist about Thankssays’s post–cheap shot. Howgauche–maybe a little snobby, but not classless, who made you the manners and decorum police? They’re entitled to think the bathroom thing is tacky. Personally I find it a funny hoot, tacky or unclassy who knows? I guess to some it is. GoHalle–some truth to her posts, big Halle/Gabriel fan. Afraid it posters don’t post JJ won’t post things about her/them, which is silly–we’re talking Halle Berry folks, there will always be posts about her/them, so don’t worry.
link won’t post–check out the link post on the other JJ Cafe Fuego article.
Missingsomething, I am not trying to start anything. All of you started it with all your racist remarks. Thankssays is still a racist *****, neither howgauche nor her parents have any elegance or dignity, and GoHalle is absolutely right. She may be a big fan of Halle and Gaby’s, but she at least makes sense in her remarks and is open-minded. She doesn’t come across as racist and narrow-minded like most of the posters do. After all, all of you are hoping that this couple breaks up as soon as possible, and that Halle will find another black man, even if he may beat her or break her heart. That is more preferable than an extremely good-looking, charming, gentlemanly, accomplished white man. So all of you are indeed racists and common to boot!
Leigh thanks for clarifying your point. Personally, I hope they make it. Maybe some of the posters are or maybe racist. How is the below quote racist–it seemed positive to me:

God, the food sounds so good. It’s got my mouth watering. Dammit should’ve taken a lunch break today!!!
I like Halle and Aubry together. I know he’s a model and good looking but I don’t find him sexy. Anyways, I still hope Halle and Aubry make it. It looks as though this relationship is good for both of them. They’d make some beautiful babies together.
—How on earth is this racist?
———————————————————————————————
Not going to debate the howgauche is, think you are being just as judgemental as they are ( no offense). Go Halle’s points are well taken.
Leigh, disregard the last part of my last statement. Was more concerned for the first part. Again, do appreciate you for clarifying for someone who really likes them and wanted to know more about the restaurant. Thanks.
Thank’s apology. I do have to say about the last part of the statement that if Gabriel were a black man she wouldn’t make such a point of disparaging his appearance. In another posting some months back, a woman said he looked dirty and pale. That is racist!
No problem. Gotcha. Thought you were making reference to their original post which was reposted. Was confused. My fault. Glad we were able to clear that up.
A recent pic of them actually shows Halle looking as if she was telling him off. I’m surprised Jared has not posted it. Gabriel was pulling his hair back, Halle rolling up her sleeves, and turning around and saying something. Could have been nothing, but other posters who saw this pic thought she was somewhat scolding him. He looked as if he paused and was just looking at her, Halle kind of had a “what are you doing” type of expression. But who knows, it’s hard to tell with pictures what’s really going on. Maybe they are just the perfect couple (yeah right????)
We’ll see what happens. Life is short, but it’s also quite long. They’ve only been together a year, that’s really nothing. I won’t say they are the perfect couple, they have to go through some hard times before I say that. Anyone will love you when you are in the spotlight and everything is gravy!
You can check the pic on YBF.blogspot.com (Dec 2006 archives).
Thanks for your post, will have to check it out. Guess JJ either wants to do positive stuff on them or is waiting to see where all the blogs are going with this so there won’t be another TP snafu.
There are several of those pix of them walking and talking as on the X17 link (which I posted )as well as several others making other jokes about them as well as that kooky guy from British Columbia Arika Moritani/Stuart Bennett who’s been posting crap all over the internet including his blog for the last year or so dogging the couple saying how Halle is really in love with Stuart etc. Some of the comments of several people nailing him are found on the above X17 link for being a tad weird. Haven’t seen the pix on your link, yet.
Personally, I think some people may be reading to much into regardless of what the status of the relationship is, how long will it last, etc. A lot of the sites have also noted the same thing. I know some people may believe they’re fighting where myself and others don’t. You all be the judge?
I do agree with the posts either on this site or the recent JJ article on them who ever commented this is probably the longest they’ve been together at anyone time and getting used to that and doing what normal people do, even though I don’t know why she doesn’t have someone else do her grocery/other shopping if she doesn’t want to be seen so much?

Thanks to everybody for giving me some more tidbits and sites to check out. Halle and Gabriel are my favorite couple at the moment. I think JJ is lagging a bit with the photos.
Is it true that this couple might move to Canada? Says who?
If Halle picks up her things and makes that journey to Canada with Gabriel, there is no need to speculate any further. This is a SERIOUS relationship. They could be planning something big together… perhaps a child. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
There was a rumor a few months ago can’t remember where I read it or saw it on some blog or photo storage site that they were looking to buy property in Canada. Have tried to look for it for awhile but can’t find it. I do find it , I will let you know and post here for you. Don’t know if it’s true. One can only hope.
At least they wouldn’t have to put up with the crap their putting up with here in the States other than that sicko Arika Moritani/Stuart Bennett posting crap about how and Halle are so in love for over a year or so all over the internet and on his blog (I also heard about him too–a total nutcase). The boy is ate up regardless of his many denials. Seriously, doubt if Halle even knows him or much less has talked to him. Don’t think she’d be dating that cute studmuffin of her’s for over a year just to keep some whacko away.
Also, I think there was also a rumor (I don’t know if it’s been posted on one of the JJ pieces or not) I think over the summer maybe of Aubry was on some Canadian program or some Canadian program said he’d like them to get married in Montreal.
Don’t know if this is true either. May want to check the Internet for this or her message board at imdb.com–we can only keep our fingers crossed.
Thanks for the pics…I have to say seeing the several pics of that scene shows a bit disruption. Halle walking away, the ones I saw her turning around saying whatever to him. But to be honest most couples fight, so it could be nothing (IF THEY ARE EVEN FIGHTING!).
Thanks for the info.
I agree with another poster on another site. I think Gabriel and Halle are getting tired of being followed around everywhere. They can’t be glamorous at all times, and I’m sure it’s frustrating to have your photo taken when you are not ready to pose. I sure would be pi$$ed off if a photog was stalking me in the supermarket.
Yeah but usually when stars are annoyed by the pappi they walk away together, or show their anger toward the pappi, they don’t frown at each other. Plus, Halle has been here numerous of times, with Eric, Michael, now with Gabriel. I’ve never seen her react like this. Plus, what’s the point of hiding the relationship, which would be why she would walk away alone IF she were really just trying to avoid the pappi, everyone knows they are a couple, she’s made that clear. So I think it was probably a little argument and PERHAPS they just did not want the pappi to hear it. Who knows. At the end of the day, none of us know.
But I have to say this,
Go Halle: please don’t get obsessed with the FANTASY of this couple. They are just regular people. I worry that you might fall apart WHEN you find out, this relatinoship is likely not the fairy tale you think it is. To be honest, their relationships seems quite boring. Even when Halle and Eric were gonig through issues, their candids showed more fun together. And she, at least on camera, seemed to have a lot of fun with Michael. So, I wouldn’t put this relationship or these people on a pedestal!
Totally agree with the last poster. Movie stars shouldn’t be put on pedestals and need to be as humans. Regarding the bit about moving to Canada and Aubry wanting to get married in Montreal—think they’re just rumors.
The fact that Halle doesn’t appear to be smiling for the cameras gives me hope that she’s done with the fake appearances. She seems more serious with Gabriel, more like she’s carefully making sure she doesn’t force the relationship.
If Gabriel and Halle break up, I will be very disappointed, but when you follow these Hollywood stars, in the back of your mind, you have to realize that there is the possiblity that the relationship can fail. If these two beautiful people break up, I will be terribly disappointed, but I won’t break down. I’ll go on and continue to wish nothing but the best for Miss Berry. I like her. Honestly, I think she’s a good person.
Cool Go Halle. I know you wouldn’t break down, I’m just hoping you don’t think this is a “perfect relationship” just because they are so called beautiful people or movie stars. TRUST ME, they have the most and often times WORSE problems. I think Halle will be okay with or without Gabriel, and to be honest a relationship only truly works when one is secure with themselves and is not in NEED of someone else, hopefully Halle has reached that point in her life.
But to be honest the only guy I think Halle truly was “feenin” and probably still does is David Justice, that girl was crushed when that marriage fell apart, I was just looking at an old clip concerning that situation, she appeared to want to cry during every interview. Eric, I think she loved him a lot, obviously since she stayed with him although he cheated sooo many times, but after a while she probably could not trust him. Gabriel, I really don’t get the feeling of Halle being “super in love.” I sense that she is in a place now where she has someone in her life, she’s not lonely, but she’s still moving cautiously. I’m sure this has been said, but Eric was supposed to be “the perfect guy” for Halle when they first started dating, even Halle thought so, and look what happened (again proving the humanity of these people, the image means nothing). So, with that, you can only expect Halle to be a little cautious with any of her new relationships.
Happy Holidays!
According to some folks…it may not be Gabriel whose sexuality should be in question. And that’s all I’m going to say. But if it’s true, it all makes sense now.
Oh please, don’t start with Halle may be a lesbian. Nothing more than possibly being bi-curious at best. Bi-sexual who knows. You sound like that gay guy who used to post on Halle’s imdb.com message board, swearing that Halle was or should be family.
That’s how the whole Oprah/Gail thing or the Whitney/Robin etal (and others) (from 15-20 years ago got started).
Just because she hasn’t had the best choice in men including her 2 failed marriages which she played a part in (have never gone for the victim bit), more of a karma thing or not willing to work on herself, all of that doesn’t make her a lesbian. Don’t have a clue if the thought has ever crossed her mind. Even if she did the bi-curious thing, don’t see her being on the pink team for long, see it more as an experiment or ruling out the possibility if she has had those thoughts. She’s still all woman. Trust me I am know a lot of gays and lesbians, Halle isn’t one of the girls, trust me.
Would almost bet, that if she really is willing to work on herself, she will find the right guy, if it’s not Aubry to settle down with. Even if she stays with Aubry she still needs to give a little more than showing up periodically in NYC or going with him occasionally to Miami , Canada,etc. Instead of him being her servant or errand boy.
Unless she has a profound character change soon with herself with Aubry, I don’t see them together much longer. If he’s really the one, she would have already permanently moved to NYC/Miami by now as well as spending more time there.
Nice try…still say of two…it’s probably Aubry…c’mon with all that talk about her saying she wanted a kid and the fake pg photos from this summer…bet Gabby is the one shooting blanks or being a neurotic Catholic not wanting kids w/o being married (don’t think they’re on the same page on the marriage thing).
How rich of the 2nd to the last poster. Probably some gay or lesbian wishing she was on their team or one of the sistas trying to stir up the **** because they don’t want to believe Halle’s being Gabby’s cover/beard could be a possibility (not saying he is) and not the other way around. Sounds like the jealousy is still continuing. Seriously, doubt they’re both each others cover. Attacking her orientation is like the posters who attack her mental stability or want to give her a diagnosis of being bi-polar,etc.
Lesbian-not on your life. Bi-curious or having bi-sexual thoughts as the last poster pointed out–maybe. Do also agree w/ohplease…she will have a successful relationship with a man once she figures out what is it in her that tells her she is not worthy to have a successful relationship.
Who knows if she and Gabe will survive? Or if Halle will ever figure it out? In the meantime things are what they are and don’t folks stirring the **** because things have been quiet for a several days.
