A great French bistro in London. Excellent for lunch, business lunch and dinner. Salads are delicious, pastas are tasty and light! Linguini is tasty as well.
The staff is friendly and professional. The place is relaxing!
Prices are affordable especially lunch menus!
I highly recommend it.
Bon appétit
Met former colleagues in Central London for an evening of drinks, fine food and loads of stories. We met at a local pub first and then walked around St. Christopher's Place and chose this place to have proper seat-in dinner.
We each ordered our own main course and a few side dishes to share - gratin potato, creamed spinach and two portions of skinny fries. All were good especially the fries. For mains, I had the roasted pork belly which was served on a bed of mixed cabbage, apple and thyme. The vegetables were fresh and punchy thanks to the apple brandy sauce. The pork was great. The meat was moist and juicy and the skin was crispy. It was just perfect, especially considering I just arrived on the same day from Dubai where good pork dishes is a luxury.
Then, we went for their dessert offerings. I had the praline crêpe. It was as beautiful on the plate as it was on the palate. It came with caramelised banana and crème. The banana slices were caramelised well - sweet with a bit of crunch for an added texture. The crème was light and fortunately not sweetened. The chocolate/praline filling was sinfully luscious. It was one amazing ensemble of a dessert.
It was great to catch up with old friends and even better to have done so over a good gastronomic experience.

Classic brasserie. Onion soup was a good choice. Fries were delicious. Lamb was not a good choice. You can try fish and chips here. The music was too loud.
