Belle de Mars Review - 2nd Arr. - Marseille - The Infatuation
"This narrow restaurant is minimal in every way: warm lighting on blank walls, music audible but pleasantly low, just six wines by the glass, and seasonal ingredients prepared simply, as if the chefs just strolled around the markets on their way in and picked out what looked good (which is exactly what they did). Dinner is a €49 prix fixe and lunch is semi a la carte—you can choose from a main or a prix fixe of two or three courses—and seafood and vegetables are served on the kind of dishes that makes you check the brand. Pescetarians are safe here (the staff are accommodating in removing meat) but rarely is something strictly vegetarian. Reserve a table for lunch if you have a lighter appetite, and if you’ve got someone with you, share one full set menu and add an extra main course." - Sophie Friedman
