Run with kindness by Natacha, set up in the open air on a shady terrace with trees, this table has the charm of Italian inns or neighborhood cafés. Expatriates meet there and travelers drop by for a breakfast, a homemade juice, a cookie. They also come to have lunch with a mixed salad, pasta or a dish of the day, with or without a glass of wine or a beer, and they willingly give in to the pleasure of a sandwich since all the products are fresh. At any time of day, you can stop in for a real espresso, short and strong.

Bonne cuisine.
Le service très agréable.
Prix raisonnables.
En revanche, un manque de professionnalisme sur la gestion des clients amis...
Un vieux monsieur, semble-t-il entrepreneur et proche du personnel du restaurant prend la salle pour son bureau annexe et passe ses appels professionnels sur haut parleur pour gérer ses chantiers.
On se sent juste tolérés... clients de deuxième catégorie puisque contraints de subir avec l'aval du restaurant.
Nous avons dû mette de la musique sur notre table pour réussir à nous isoler un peu (première fois que je fais cela dans un restaurant).
Il faut séparer l'amical du professionnel.

If you're looking for an English Breakfast, Roots is at the top of my list of recommendations.
Well-priced, tasty and with awesome service, it's become a favourite stop when I'm in the mood for a savoury start to the day.

We visited this joint (I would not call it a restaurant) with a colleague after meeting a client up in the north. A friend of mine from France had actually told me about this place.
I asked for a recommendation for something filling as we were a bit hungry and we went with her recommendation. All good for so far.
After the meal, the French tenant asked if we wanted dessert. We told her that we wanted some light because the dish was actually quite filling. (Butternut gratin with chorizo)
The lady looked at me in the eye and spurted the following words in French, "Un dessert leger, c'est comme un plat mauricien sans piment! ça n'existe pas! Prenez l'addition!"*
* A light dessert is like a Mauritian dish without chillies, it does not exist. Take the bill!
We paid and left.
Now I do not know her issue with Mauritius, Mauritius cuisine or us, but she did not seem happy to do her job or where she was.
And I am steering clear of this place.

Nous avons bruncher avec nos 2
enfants à deux reprises dans ce restaurant et nous avons été ravis !
Les prix sont très raisonnables, et les plats sont délicieux , il faut venir avant 11h pour le brunch ???? et il y a un parking juste en face du restaurant .
L'accueil est chaleureux, et le staff est vraiment aimable.
Un grand merci à Natacha, la patronne, avec qui nous avons eu de passionnantes discussions. Une excellente adresse à ne pas manquer !
Sam, Matt et les enfants
