La Cantine du Pecheur

spotted this by chance whilst shopping .arrived at12-30 to discover a packed buzzy smart restaurant. delightful front of the house staff had no hesitation in giving us the last table despite it being set for 4 and were2.spoilt for choice with the menu although next time we might go with a tapas selection.
