Everything we ordered was 5 times larger than we expected, yet made with dedicated care and attention to flavours and ingredients. I could hardly finish my entrée, let alone the main course! And yet it was all so tasty it nearly made me cry not to eat it. This place is great and I highly recommend it.

I was there as part of a birthday party on a Saturday night and the restaurant was packed. There were other groups as well and people kept coming in and asking for a table until about 11! The menu offers a large choice of starters, pasta, pizzas and mains such as meat, fish and skewers. I opted for a salmon and scallops skewer. Considering it was a busy night and we were a group, I would say the food arrived quickly and the 14 of us were able to start eating altogether without waiting too long for everyone's food to arrive. My skewer was served with a side of linguini and vegetable julienne. I was not enthused by either of them, especially compared with the deliciously creamy gratin dauphinois that accompanied the duck magret on the plate opposite me! That said, the salmon was perfectly cooked and the scallops were just right as well, a little on the underdone side. For dessert, we all had the birthday cake which was an Opera: a thin layer of sponge cake with crispy praline and chocolate mousse on top. The cake was fabulous but the slices we got were double or three times the serving we would have eaten had we cut it ourselves. Most of us could not finish it... So beware, keep space for dessert! The service was friendly but a tiny bit rude sometimes. For a busy night this can be understandable though, but not excused so that's 4 stars for Cafe de la Paix!

All three of us had the same dish: the sea bass with asparagus and a side order of spinach. Bread and water were brought to us and no charge was made for these wonderful additions. The bass was broiled perfectly and the accompanying sauce featured chopped vegetables, perfect for the asparagus (both green and white). Everything, we all agreed, was superb. The waiter was a delight, the ambiance decidedly local with a wonderful addition of some recruits from the parachute regiment stationed across the road. The waiter made time to chat with us and proudly shared that the chef, his boss, was a Michelin rated chef. This restaurant is a hidden gem.

I began with Autour d'un Plat: a good seasonal salad with tomato, onion, Red Pepper, Green and Black Olives, radish, carrot shavings, and Vinaigrette Dressing, followed by Onion Soup au Gratin, which was slightly burned on top. But the large crock of soup was nevertheless great the rest of the way: hot, cheesy, graced with Thyme, and filled with nicely broken down breadcrumbs and well-caramelized onions. My first cassoulet ever sported white Cannelini Beans and white sausage with Languedoc confit of Canard. The dish was amazingly filling and quite satisfying. I was only able to put away 3/4 of what was presented before me. Meanwhile, Diane enjoyed a medium-rare Filet of Boeuf with mushroom Sauce and Galette Potato with Bechamel Cheese (au gratin potatoes). Rolls were undistinguished, and one fly alighted once on our table. But, everything considered, who cared?! Service was friendly and very good.

We were both very happy. But the best part was my chocolate dessert... No words. The ambience of this place is awesome, I could have stayed all night. We are only in Perpignan for one night but I honestly wish we were staying longer so we could eat here again!
