BAG STOLEN WHILE EATING OUTSIDE OF GIGi’s -BE CAREFUL!!!!
The food is excellent - we loved it. However, at 1:00 pm on a sunny Friday - my son had a small backpack with a camera, etc in it. He had it right next to his chair on ground.

Galettes menu includes salmon, burrata, ham etc; I had the salmon with creme fraiche which was tasty and beautifully presented. For dessert, the daily special (strawberries with frozen yoghurt, white chocolate and strawberry coulis) was great, even if the coulis was a little sharp.
