Picnik Quotes For Friendship

My Uncle


Hello everyone! I'm back with a new restaurant review as promised! Tonight I went to the discovery of the Abbesses district that I find many ways to close the street Censier and its surroundings, and that pleases me so much!
In search of ideal restaurant to celebrate our reunion with my best friend Vincent, we went "At my uncle," a wine bar on the side of the street Burq cited in the Gault et Millau guide and my favorite, The Fooding !

Although very promising on the map, we've both been relatively disappointed with our entries and our dishes (Form + main entrance at 24 €).
Personally, I opted for a creme brulee and goat cheese with tarragon and input for hake fillet wasabi sauce and I was rather disappointed. In fact, I just did not feel the goat in my creme brulee (which was the main ingredient, however ...). Moreover, my dish was hearty but the fish sauce and accompaniment were like three separate entities on my plate separated by small porcelain bowls with a fish for a result but certainly very good cooked in a relatively mundane. Moreover, the idea not to merge with the accompanying dish saddens me a bit ...

A little disappointed, we have chosen not to make dessert ... it's pretty unusual for me ...

This restaurant however two positive aspects: the atmosphere is very nice, cozy and ideal for a head to head (knowing that the tables are still stuck together, but it's the same everywhere in the area ..) and their wines are very good. We opted for a wine country oc-25 € the bottle which was very pleasant and marry well with both fish and meat ...

My overall impression is mixed, but not very good evening with what was on the plate. It comforts me in my opinion however, that restaurants in Paris are not cheap and often the card is more captivating than the actual content of the plate and leads me to always go back to basics: Cellar Burgundy, my favorite restaurant!

Good evening!
