The husband and wife team are delightful, he at front of...house and she the genius in the kitchen. Only open at lunchtime, there is a set menu of 2 starters, 2 mains and 2 deserts. There is no need for more my wife and I ordered one of each dish which we shared. Each were a treat for the taste buds! I cannot describe the food as the recipes are quite complex, but the end result is stunning. Do not expect fancy upmarket decor. There is no need as the food says it all. This restaurant is an fabulous oasis in what is generally a French vegetarian desert.

Their couscous is vegetarian, but delicate, light, and fragrant. A limited selection, but delicious. A winning formula.
