Come lunch and dinner, this cute case créole is alive with action. Tables spill from inside out onto a breezy terrace. Food-wise, the menu features all the Creole classics, with an emphasis on Cilaos lentils as an accompaniment. The rustic decor is easy on the eye, with exposed beams and laminate floors. At €16, the five-course buffet créole is a steal.
