Gourmet Restaurant

Committed to what stands the test of time and to those who do things well, we’ve always kept a watchful eye—and a discerning palate—on this spot, which has been around for nearly twenty years thanks to the Van de Velde twins. The simple bistro of its early days has stayed true to its roots while refining its offerings, from the lovely new ’60s-inspired decor to a cuisine that remains both precise and indulgent: asparagus from the Loire Valley with ravigote sauce, sea bream in a curry-infused broth with peas and asparagus, sots l’y laisse with bird’s tongue risotto, and vanilla rice pudding with rum, raisins, and toasted sesame seeds. And prices remain reasonable, including the €36 lunch menu.
