Chez Nathalie

Liège


Decorated with gilt-framed mirrors, copper pots and gingham tablecloths, this lovable spot could audition for the role of bistro in any mid-20th-century French movie. The food follows similar lines, including southern mainstays like cassoulet and scampi fricassée, all served with warm, motherly attention.
