This pretty table with Corsican accents unfolds in the heart of a typical alleyway of the old town of Nice in two areas combining contemporary decoration and conviviality, all in a trendy and intimate atmosphere. At the head of this charming address, the dynamic and creative Chef Jean-Charles Césari and his team, all as affable as they are experienced!
The cuisine here expresses itself through Mediterranean dishes full of fragrances and products from the Isle of Beauty. The appetizers are inventive and tasty. We recommend pissaladière and arugula; leeks, mimolette eggs and pancetta chips; poached egg, parmesan emulsion; beef cromeschis and artichokes barigoules
The menu offers a wide choice that will satisfy sybarites, gourmets and fine palates: veal quasi, gnocchi on a bed of spinach shoots; cod back and cabbage purée; cuttlefish ink risotto, saffron emulsion; oven-roasted fregola sarda pasta, Niçoise olives and candied tomatoes
Please note that the products on offer change with the seasons. As for desserts, you can enjoy the XXL chocolate macaroon, the Baba au Rhum revisited (candied fruit, light cream savarin, a touch of blood orange ice cream and yuzu zest), the caramel flank, the Bourbon vanilla millefeuille caramel salted butter or the fine apple pie
The wine cellar displays nearly 160 references watched over by Antoine Filippi, Jean-Charles Césari's cousin and partner; special mention should be made of the white wine from Sartène and the red wine Nicolas Mariotti Bindi d'Oletta
The service is perfect and the welcome is most pleasant. An excellent address!
