We found a little restaurant that has only been open 3 months, Huitre Brûlée, 8 rue Brûlée, 09 82…read more57 90 18. Grade - "A"! It has only a dozen or so tables, a 4 top in the outside courtyard, an 8 top round inside and the others 3-4 but anything can expand a little. It is quite comfortable and simply but prettily decorated. The menu (carte) is small too but interesting, as is the wine list (hand picked with only 3 in each of a half dozen categories), but there is a new, well priced "menu" (complete meal) each day. The chef's name is Paul Lacheray, foodies should remember in case he ever moves away from what he's created. We ordered 2 "menus". The entrée was green asparagus and carrots, roasted with a light sauce of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, cumin and chives with shavings of a cheese that most resembled an orange cheddar. Absolutely delightful and different. The " plat" was a seared duck breast, a steak if you will, perfectly cooked "rosé" and tender, with fava beans and roast potatoes in a light sauce of olive oil, capers, mustard seed, chives and secret stuff. Fabulous. Desert was a thick chocolate mousse, with chocolate shavings and "crunchies". Terrific. His cuisine is one of light sauces both in consistency and flavor, and worked perfectly with his dishes. Go here! We actually went back that night for a couple of appetizer to test their regular menu. After ordering we were given an amuse bouche of little slice of squid lightly roasted with a little soy. I had, no surprise, 6 oysters titled "4 + 2 surprises". I eat oysters with nothing added, no lemon, no mignonettes, no nothing, but I wanted to see what he did. Well one came with a little of a very light mignonette and the other with a little faux caviar. Two very interesting and light changes, but when you have very fresh oysters, they are hard to improve on. Nice try though. Just had an appetizer of lightly sautéed in olive oil with some steamed broccoli and potatoes. I have never eaten such tender squid, simply a delicious dish. So I asked if I could get a half dozen of the amuse Bosch squid to finish the meal, and they were nice enough to do that for me. Added data for my go-here-al-all-costs recommendation, although their prices are very modest, even cheap for that quality.

Despite the casual setting, the food was every bit as good as several highly rated restaurants we had recently dined at in Paris. Any attempt on my part to describe the dishes in our chosen tasting menu would not do them justice. All were superb. Smart, but not too precious. This chef understands the proper balance in fine cuisine. Overall, an excellent experience. Bravo.
