Red and white checked tablecloths set the warm bistro scene, reinforced by a soundtrack starring the likes of Jacques Brel and Georges Brassens and, above all, the personality of charismatic, fun-loving Joelle in the front of house. It is the perfect spot to (re)discover the importance of home-made cooking and the sheer strength of traditional flavours. The regularly renewed menu stars a cast of classics ranging from artisanal foie gras terrine to carbonade of pork in a creamy Blackwell sauce, revealing know-how paired with a taste for simplicity. Bookings are recommended as this feel-good bistro is inevitably packed to the seams.
