    I have cycled past Au Clair de Lune many times when heading to town from campus. From outside it…read morepromised an alternative dining scene, as confirmed by its presence on the happycow database. It's pretty tucked away, on a street just off notre dame which seems pretty dedicated to associations, fairtrade shops and restaurants with good ethics. Au clair de lune is an organic restaurant, boasting vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options. Inside there are not many places to sit, and all are usually taken at lunch time.. It's a popular place! Apparently during the warmer summer months there is seating available outside, around the back of the building. The interior is very rustic with many interesting eco-friendly seeming decorations, many of which are recycled. There are few choices and the opening times are limited (11.45-2.30 monday-saturday, evenings closed apart from group bookings) but this restaurant wins in that it is ethical and boasts good quality ingredients and imaginative preparations. It is therefore hardly surprising that Au Clair de Lune is popular and requires a reservation. I ordered the only remaining vegetarian option alongside 3 of my friends, the other one ordered fish cooked in coconut milk. The vegetarian dish consisted of a slice of polenta topped with ratatouille, roasted pumpkin, served with a salad (too bitter for me, I didn't like it so my boyfriend finished it off), a lentil puree, hummus, red cabbage. It was delicious, though I could have easily have eaten more. We all opted for the pudding, three of us taking the gluten free chestnut flour chocolate fondant with a hint of orange, the other taking the lemon tart, as recommended by the chef. Apparently there was a game, "guess the secret ingredient". None of us could guess, and it turned out that it was tarragon. It was nice to have a little dining challenge and some friendly none-invasive interaction with the manager of the restaurant towards the end of our meal. The prices were very reasonable, I payed 12 euros for the main and pudding. Recommended.

    My boyfriend and I craved a burger and chips of New Years day. Being vegetarian, this meant we had…read moreto find a place which was open which served veggie burgers. Difficult task in France... After a few disappointing inquiries, we found out that Emily's diner was open AND it offered veggie burgers. The 2.5 rating on Facebook was quite worrying though. We decided to give it a try anyway. The setting was extremely convincing; the country music, cheap lights, plastic booth seats, and memorabilia from a nostalgic trip back in time to the high point of route 66 made it seem quite American. On sale were also imported fruit loops, peanut butter cups and marshmallow spread, things you would expect from an American diner. The place screamed American capitalistic dream, with 6 sauce options on the table (barbeque, French and American mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup, hot sauce) and plastic laminated menus. On offer were many burgers, many extras (like onion rings, chips, jalapeno poppers, nachos), milkshakes, and a large selection of American puddings, all at high prices though (cheesecake, carrot cake, chocolate cake, ice cream etc, all at 6 euros). We both went for the veggie burger. The cheddar cheese on my partner's chips was clearly the American plastic type, though this was pretty authentic. I can imagine French people not liking this. According to the other reviews, the coleslaw which came on the plate was store bought, from Casino. For me, this is actually acceptable in an American fast food joint... The food is fast, simple and relatively unhealthy... It fills the fast food hole though. The service was also fast and friendly, the waiter came and had a little chat to us, which was nice but not too invasive. The price tag for the fast food was a little high, at 9.90 for a veggie burger with chips, but here in France I guess it's considered "ethnic" food, so it's more of a novelty, and thus I will be a little less critical concerning the price.

    I went to get an American breakfast. They have a special that is about 7€ that features eggs,…read moresausage, bacon and a hot drink. I asked to have the eggs scrambled, they said that you cannot have them any way except over easy and that I would have to buy a side of eggs that were scrambled. Here I am thinking WTH? scrambling them does not take extra work.... so I say fine, I say I want the eggs scrambled and you can charge me more. So I did not get the eggs scrambled, I get 3 sunny side up eggs and 1 scrambled egg. SERIOUSLY!! YOU CAN'T ASK FOR THE EGGS COOKED A DIFFERENT WAY?!? wow. Then I get the hot drink...chocolate. It is about 1/2 a cup. When I leave, I see other hot chocolates and they are full cups. Then also they bring sugar...I'm thinking does Buddy the elf run this place? Who adds sugar to hot chocolate? So for about 9€ I got 1 scrambled egg, 3 eggs that I didn't eat, 1 slice of toast with butter ( I was afraid to ask for jelly, they would have charged for that too), some sausage that were not bad and some bacon that under cooked ( bacon needs to be crispy people ). I would avoid this place and not recommend it.
