Yes yes yes. If you like healthy eating and want to experience how the French do it, come here. Just a heads up, they only service lunch here from 12-2, and it's a fixed menu of three items. But it is glorious. We actually came in one day too late for the lunch, ordered a coffee and a gluten free cookie and enjoyed the afternoon. Good espresso, and they offer some non-dairy milk options, which is rare in Paris.
For lunch we ordered the salad and the polenta dishes. Both come with a lovely side salad which is freshly prepared and adorned with pumpkin seeds, yum! The salad dish included a bunch of little items, including carrots slathered in a ginger sauce, fennel with olives, coucous and parsley, zucchini/squash mixture, and some fresh lettuce. It was to die for! The polenta is equally magnificent - atop a mountain of cooked peppers, onions, and eggplant lies a foundation of polenta which might be the best I've ever had. It was just the right texture and compliment to the tasty vegetables, which they called a "stew", but isn't too liquid-y.
Included in the fixed menu are dessert options! I got the yogurt with chestnut sauce on top, and tried the chocolate cake. Both are good but you should definitely get the yogurt. It's incredibly rich but really good alongside a nice espresso.
This is a gem, tell everyone!
