    Without any conviction, I went with my half for a meal at Cafe Rouge Oracle. Guess what, total surprise. It was Amazing. I had the Pave d'Agneau so succulent perfectly cooked with a lovely puree and green vegs as a main meal. My Half had the filet signature steak with french fries.
    If you love artichoke as I do have the tapenade d'artichaut. Loved it but you will need more bread :) The merguez actually taste like real merguez pardi! Surprisingly the atmosphere was so relaxed, great music ambiance and service was exactly what you need when you are out eating, very caring but non-intrusive. All in all it was a perfect experience for a couple who never get a chance to enjoy a dinner outside with a perfect ambiance allowing you to chiil out and chat.
    Give it a try guys

    A decent cafe serving French-style food and decorated as you might expect to find in Paris. They do a prix fixe menu both for lunch and for dinner, which is surprisingly good value.

    I popped in with my lovely wife for a nibble somewhere in the late afternoon hours. We weren't the only ones here and we were greeted warmly and served promptly.

    My wife went with the French Onion Soup, which she described as rich and meaty, but not enough onion. I was only in a mood for a sandwich, so I somehow ended up ordering the Houmous Baguette. While it was moist and tasty, it seemed like there could have been more houmous on there. It came with a decent sized stack of shoestring fries, but they needed a bit more time cooking as they were still a little underdone.

    Wow, I'm seriously whining in this review and for that I apologize. It seemed at the time that everything was good, but it's only in hindsight that it needs improvement.
