Located on a large square in Rueil-Malmaison, this bistro matches its culinary standards with an equally impressive decor: hardwood floors, painted walls, floral wallpaper and quirky paintings of historical figures sporting modern accessories. The large terrace is a definite highlight! The concise and appealing menu features dishes that are well executed using top-notch ingredients, eg asparagus mimosa, vol-au-vent, floating island. Pleasant service.

Generous by nature, chef Abdou Diop delights in pleasing his guests. A case in point: the tender leek terrine topped with a zesty gribiche sauce, lifted by pickles and grated bottarga. That same indulgence is found in the beef cheek, braised to perfection, encased in a thin, crispy crust, and accompanied by carrots in a variety of textures. For dessert, a citrus-infused carrot cake is brightened by a sorbet. The chef is meticulous about cuissons, championing seasonal ingredients and straight-up flavour. Compact space with exposed beams.

Situated opposite the Abreuvoir – the ‘Watering Place’, framed by its famous sculpted horses, this old bourgeois abode is now home to a delicatessen, a wine shop and a restaurant, enthusiastically run by a dynamic team. The restaurant occupies a lovely conservatory with herringbone parquet flooring and an unrivalled view of the Abreuvoir. The chef crafts modern, well-polished dishes: organic œuf parfait, green lentils from Le Puy, smoked herring, parsley sauce and pickled shallots; confit of turbot in Mat-Khen pepper, braised fennel and citrus notes. A stroll in the park after your meal is jus

The polished culinary score of this modest establishment makes it well worth hunting out. The stripped-back, competent and a tad creative dishes are packed in striking flavours: e.g. flame-licked slices of monkfish with a wasabi foam or roast pollock with green peas, verbena and apricot. The textbook perfect profiteroles are wickedly addictive.
