Avenue's ever-changing menu focuses on local market produce, lovingly plated with barely a pink peppercorn out of place. Original combinations range from cod on a bed of aubergine and dates to tuna and mango ceviche, with desserts as varied as honeyed Brie de Meaux cheese and passion fruit tart. There's always a well-priced plat du jour (€10) for weekday lunches.
