"Cities should be built in the countryside, because the air is so much purer there" (Alphonse Allais): this almost seems to be the case in the old village of Charonne, in this neighbourhood bistro tucked away in a bucolic cobbled street. Inside, the atmosphere is laid-back and lively, relaxed and friendly. The menu is inspired by wholesome ingredients, carefully sourced from small-scale producers. When it comes to the dishes, there is no shortage of skill or flavour – just look at the salsa verde that accompanies the leeks, and the bear's garlic pesto on the toasted brioche, topped with a walnut labneh, green asparagus, peas and roasted button mushrooms. Selection of natural wines.
