I ordered the BB burger which is a brioche bun, beef patty, aged cheddar, & Montreux Jazz Café sauce with French fries. The bun was toasted with sesame seeds & the patty was juicy. The Apricot Sorbet & Pavlova Fraise et Framboise were a great light, finish to the meal. The apricot sorbet was refreshing with great flavor and came with a rolled wafer cookie.

Great lemon dessert crêpe, great prosciutto-Nüssli-goatcheese crêpe, mediocre…read morespinach-egg-mushroom-tomato crêpe, and pretty annoying service. (For those of you who know Chez Panisse in Berkeley, this place is named after the same book & movie character --- there's no close relationship between the restaurants). The lemon crêpe was exactly what you'd hope for --- some sugar (but not too much), plenty of lemon juice, and tender-but-not-soggy base. The aged ham and Nüssli / Lamb's salad crepe with chèvre (the "Mahlgin", perhaps?) was also great --- very fresh salad, savory ham, and creamy goat cheese. By contrast, the "Olive" crepe (after Popeye's girlfriend, not the oil source) seemed to include frozen chopped spinach, canned mushrooms, and far too much canned tomato sauce. The spinach and tomato soaked the crêpe, leaving it soggy. Finally, the service --- I know they're dealing with tourists (who either speak lousy French like us, or no French), but our server managed to be in our face & shouting much of the time, but mysteriously absent when we were trying to pay our bill (one of the kitchen staff tracked her down for us). Not a fan.
