I stopped by here after doing a map search for restaurants and chose this spot because of the high reviews, and it was later on a Saturday and plenty of places closer to me had closed or were insanely packed. So I wandered down to this neat little place and sat outside. I ordered the summer special “petit menu” of salad, pomme frites, and 1/2 a chicken for 30 francs. Many menu items were considerably more than that, so it is a bit expensive (unlike many others visiting the area, I am not very wealthy.) The special was a good deal for me, so if you’re on a budget like me, check out their specials. The salad greens were very good - and I mean VERY fresh - no signs of wilt in any form in the leaves like I’ve seen often in my travels (looking at you Dolce in Montreux). This all looked like it was picked that morning. The chicken was perfectly seasoned, skin was delightfully crispy, and meat tender. The fries were very good as well and they provide a lot (but I ate them all!). No condiments were offered for the fries, and I didn’t ask either. This certainly didn’t seem like a ketchup type of place, although an aioli dressing of some sort to go with them would have been pleasant. The fries oddly stole the show for me. They didn’t really need the crutch of a dipping sauce. Perfect crispiness outside and a soft interior. No sogginess at all. Lightly salted which is perfect, really unmasks the flavor - not just salt. Not sure the type of potato or oil being used, but certainly what I consider to be perfect fry execution! The wait staff was friendly and attentive, very good humor and put up with my poor French - I used this opportunity to practice just a wee bit, or should I say “oui“ bit? [insert drum rimshot here]. I took no pictures because I was too busy eating.
