La Table du Lieu-dit Réserver une table

happened upon this great little cafe by chance the evening they were having a concert in the street. We had to move on so only got to see the musicians warming up but what a fantastic atmosphere. The food was great, but as it was the concert only what was called the assiette repas, which would have been fine as a starter but wouldn't have filled up a small child (although very reasonably priced). What we did have was delicious, homemade, local & bio, really loved the ethos of the place and would love to go back another day.

This restaurant is run by a young couple who appear to enjoy adventurous food and really try hard to share this with their clients. Having said that on the only day I went they were definitely having an "off day". Portions were small, odd combinations - for example a puree of turnip served with salmon and food served luke warm on cold plates. Deserts were good - they make excellent macaroons but nothing to write home about. At 16Euros for the set lunch without wine this seems to me to be fighting way above its station and it certainly cannot compete with other restos serving lunch at this same price. Worth a try perhaps but realistically this is no where near the best food in the region.

For a single-handed business, this is nothing short of extraordinary: locally sourced organic ingredients of the highest quality are presented daily in a simple yet subtly original menu which combines great flavours (pork with caramel, tamarind with roquefort, sweetend ewe's milk with pepper) with great attention to detail and presentational flair.Aurelie, a highly-trained pastry chef, can turn her hand to just about any culinary technique, but rather than showing off prefers to concentrate on innovative flavour combinations, while simultaneously handling front of house and table service. The bookish setting (the Lieu-Dit is a bookshop run by an eco coop) belies the sophistication of the cooking, which, while unpretentious, wouldn't be out of place in a high-class metropolitan eaterie - think early Conran).Open lunchimes Tuesday to Saturday, the daily menu offers three lovingly-presented courses (including homemeade chocolate) for 15 euros - amazing! There'a a vegetarian option, and Aurelie will also take bookings for evening partries (minimum 15 people), as well as creating gateaux to order.This really is THE place to eat in Saint Affrique, don't miss it. And best to book ahead if you want a good table.

happened on this big little cafe by chance in the evening she had a concert in the street. We had to move on so that only the musicians could warm up, but what a fantastic atmosphere. The food was great, but as it was... the concert was just what the Assiette Repas was called, which would have been good as an appetizer, but would not have filled a small child (although very favorable). What we did was delicious, homemade, local organic, really loved the ethos of the place and would like to return another day.

This restaurant is operated by a young couple who seem to enjoy adventurous food and really try to share it with their customers. After I said they definitely had a free day on the only day I left. Portions were small, odd combinations... for example a pure armor served with salmon and food served hot on cold plates. Deserts were good to make excellent Macaroons, but not to write at home. At 16Euros for lunch without wine this seems to me to fight far above his station and it certainly cannot compete with other restos at this same price with lunch. Try perhaps, but realistic this is not where close to the best food in the region.

Cela n'a rien d'exceptionnel pour une seule entreprise artisanale : des ingrédients locaux et biologiques de la plus haute qualité sont présentés quotidiennement dans une carte originale, simple mais subtile, qui allie belles saveurs (porc au caramel, tamarin au roquefort, lait de brebis sucré au poivre) avec de belles saveurs. vue de détail et présentation juste. Aurélie, pâtissière de formation, peut s'adonner à n'importe quelle technique culinaire, mais au lieu de se concentrer sur des associations de saveurs innovantes tout en servant le service à domicile et à table. L'environnement réservable (le Lieu Dit est une librairie gérée par un éco-koop) est la sophistication de l'art culinaire, qui, bien qu'imprévisible, ne semble pas déplacé dans une métropole huppée des débuts de Conran. Ouvert les midis du mardi au samedi, le menu du jour propose trois plats joliment présentés (dont du chocolat maison) pour 15 euros incroyable ! Il existe une option végétarienne, et Aurélie commandera également les réservations de soirées (au moins 15 personnes) ainsi que la création de Gateaux. C'est vraiment l'endroit où manger à Saint Affrique, ne le manquez pas. Et mieux vaut réserver si vous voulez une bonne table.

arrivé dans ce grand petit café par hasard le soir elle avait un concert dans la rue. Il a fallu avancer pour que seuls les musiciens puissent s'échauffer, mais quelle ambiance fantastique. La nourriture était excellente, mais telle qu'elle était... le concert était exactement le nom de l'Assiette Repas, qui aurait été bon comme apéritif, mais n'aurait pas comblé un petit enfant (bien que très favorable). Ce que nous avons fait était délicieux, fait maison, bio local, j'ai vraiment adoré la philosophie du lieu et j'aimerais y revenir un autre jour.
