Delicious lunch! We had a bagel with smoked salmon & salad, chicken sandwich with salad, & a smoked salmon salad. Not a large lunch, but the perfect filling amount to be able to walk around the city after. Great calm modern ambiance, & am loving the black ceiling so much that I am considering doing this in my flat!
Great service! I don't speak French & they went for it in English for us.. amazing atmosphere, we got to enjoy the outside front tables, all fantastic!!
