A Delightful Stop in Covent Garden! 🥖
We decided to make a pit stop here to break up the long walk back to the train station – and what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be! Nestled right in the heart of Covent Garden, this French restaurant offers a lovely stretch of outdoor seating perfect for watching the world go by. 🍽️ Tasty Fixed-Price Menu We opted for the fixed-price menu – 3 courses for under £25! Here’s what we tried: Gluten-free option: Brie (could have been warmer!), risotto (with chicken), and crème brûlée 🧀🍮 My picks: Salmon rillette, chicken paillard (with a side of sautéed potatoes), and a decadent chocolate truffle cake 🍫🍰 Every dish was well-prepared, though I nearly got caught off-guard by the Parmesan sprinkled over my salad – not my favorite! 🧊 Chilled Wine & a Relaxing Vibe Paired with a glass of iced French wine 🍷, our meal felt like a true Parisian escape. The total came to around £100 for a satisfying and flavorful lunch. ⚖️ Service: Efficient but Could Be Warmer The staff were efficient and professional, though a bit reserved. Given that a 12.5% service charge was automatically added, we hoped for a slightly more engaging experience. 🌟 A Convenient & Tasty Choice All in all, this spot is perfect for a relaxed meal in Covent Garden – especially if you’re looking for solid French classics without breaking the bank. #CoventGardenEats #FrenchRestaurant #FixedPriceMenu #AlfrescoDining #LondonBites
