Insider Tips

The depth of flavour in every dish is staggering – be it the bits of mildly spiced minced meat adding an extra textural dimension to the sticky strands of spaghetti in the lamb bolognese, or the warm, homely taste of the ratatouille crêpe, or the delicate hints of honey and parsley and the tang of pomegranate in the pear and walnut salad with iceberg and gorgonzola dressing. Wash these down with a cup of rosehip and hibiscus tea or cinnamon cappuccino
Desserts here are truly artisanal. It would be a huge blunder to walk out without trying their espresso panna cotta, which is soaked in the headiness of freshly brewed coffee sourced from Chikmagalur in Karnataka, and comes adorned with a ring of caramelised white chocolate granules and a little hazelnut sword
The café is appealingly neat — there is hand sanitiser on every table, as well as a complementary bottle of mineral water

This quaint little café takes you on a Parisian culinary voyage in the two odd hours that you spend here. Living up to its name, the subtly flavoured and tastefully presented cuisine is a ‘pleasure’ for all the senses. The two-level, street-facing restaurant has an alluring patisserie counter, a menu written on an old-fashioned blackboard in chalk, and glowing customer reviews on post-its dotting its walls. The gourmet sandwiches are scrumptious and filling – try the croque madame with thick slices of ham, cheese and a runny-yolked fried egg resting on top of a butter-fried toast. If you are in the mood for something rich and creamy, we would recommend the mac and three cheese. Think hot al dente pasta smothered in parmesan, gorgonzola and smoked cheddar – like a party in your mouth.
