Bessem
"For a long time, chef Bessem Ben Abdallah worked in the shadow of great chefs (eg Michel Del Burgo, Marc Meneau and Pierre Gagnaire). In this town house with its terrace shaded by plane trees and a fountain, he gets to give full rein to his talent. He brings a deft touch to a delicate Mediterranean brand of cuisine that is personal to him, as in his catch of the day, artichoke purée, spinach with parmesan, courgettes, green beans, a yuzu-kombava broth, tagetes and lovage. He is assisted by a talented pastry chef. It's worth noting that the chef serves his own selection of Tunisian single-estate olive oil and raises chickens so as to have access to fresh, quality eggs! Two seasonal surprise menus; closed at lunchtimes in summer." - Michelin Inspector
