Fodor's Review:
Chef Philippe Delacourcelle knows his cassia bark from his cinnamon, thanks to a long stint in Asia. He opened this lively bistro (with purple-gray walls and photos of jazz musicians) to showcase his unique culinary style, rejuvenating archetypal French dishes with Asian and Mediterranean spices. His bargain prix-fixe menu (EUR 13 at lunch, EUR 26.50 at dinner) changes constantly, but his trademark crisp salt cod with cassia bark and supersmooth smoked potato puree is a winner, as is his rhubarb compote with gingered white chocolate mousse. Ask for advice in selecting wine from a list that highlights small producers.

Ruined!
Posted by apollonius from New York on 6/17/08
This bistro used to be a real gem. Unfortunately,
it has now been taken over by crude thugs. The kitchen used be simply amazing. Now, the only amazing thing is that anyone will put up with the
sort of abuse this place seems eager to dish out.
On my last visit, my food was burnt, they tried to
pawn off TWO corked bottles of wine on me,
and I was subjected to the kind of verbal
abuse one might expect from Seinfeld's
Soup Nazi. I wouldn't eat at this place again
if it were the last restaurant in Paris!
