What to Order
Pâtes aux champignons, beurre blanc et levain
This pasta dish, featuring mushrooms, white butter, and sourdough, is a consistent standout on the tasting menu, praised for its delicate and exquisite flavors.
"Le plat de pâtes aux champignons, beurre blanc et levain fut un gros coup de coeur et le plat de haricots aux arômes de camomille me revient constamment en tête depuis que je l'ai dégusté."

Haricots aux arômes de camomille
A surprisingly memorable dish of beans infused with chamomile aromas, noted for its unique and lingering taste.
"Jamais j’aurais pensé qu’un spaghetti puisse me faire vivre autant d’émotions. Paraît qu’il y en aura encore pendant une couple de semaines au moins — manquez pas ça."
