This was our last night in France and it was a perfect way to end our trip. First the atmosphere…read moreof this small restaurant is really great. The noise level really allows you to have good time with friends but it is quiet enough o have a one one dinner. The walls are covered w/ wine bottles and menu's are written on chalk boards with white chalk, creates a special environment. The somolier also chose very good wine to pair with the food and it was reasonably priced.
We were 6 all together and we managed to order all but 2 things that were on the menu and I must say everything was excellent. The starters included a broccoli soup w/ lime chantilly and smoked Salmon, this was really tasty. The root vegetable and crispy tart w/ meat was delicious the rock octopus w/ beans in a Mediterranean salad was awesome! Finally the lightly poached egg w/ mashed celery in chantelly cream was also very good.
Our main courses were a fillet of sea-bass w/ artichoke, olives, red peppers and anchovies. The Pluma de patanegra with mashed potatoes was awesome this pork dish had so much flavor that I would have licked the plate had nobody been looking, really great. The double pork chop was very tasty with garlic juice and "granille"potatos. The hanger steak was also really good as well as the ravioli stuffed with "double nicoise", onions, mushrooms and slow cooked ham.
Finally the dessert were really good as well, my favorite was the waffle! this was delicious, homemade w/ cream and a chocolate caramel drizzled on top. I can't remember the details of the others but the pics give a hint as to how good they were.
