Jeanne B: grocery, guest tables and a grill

The restaurant-store concept is a trend because it responds to a change in our lifestyle. Last month, we recommended La Dégustation, today is an address that deserves a visit, located in the top of the Rue Lepic, a 6-minute walk from the Relais Montmartre, which we'll talk about later on.

 

 

Upon arrival, we see a very charming front window flanked by a pretty terrace where "places are expensive." The adhesive strength of the terrace has become, in a few years, comparable to that of a magnet. On nice days, if you want to enjoy a moment in the sun, arrive at opening times (around 12 p.m. or 7:30p.m. preferably)

Before settling, a quick glance at the grocery store, in order to not cook in the evening... What can you find in this beautiful refrigerated display? Snail cakes, pâté en croûte, gravlax skewers, vegetable pie, artichoke vinaigrette...Homemade and beautifully presented products. It recalls the spirit of the Italian trattoria.



 

 

As it is written on the front, the house specialty is rotisserie: "black Challans chicken legs, Pyrenees lamb, duck legs, beef square, Morteau sausages, or even pig milk pig... all of our meats are of French or European origin," we're told. These roasts are accompanied by a creamy potato gratin and a mixed salad that can be served with a wine jar (50cl) at very moderate price (8€).

The restaurant offers a entree/main course or a main course/dessert menu at 19€ for lunch and 25€ for dinner. The entree/main course/dessert menu is offered at 25€ for lunch and 29€ for dinner. Everything is homemade.

The stars of the house are the lamb leg in Vienna milk cooked to the bone, the black Challans chicken legs, and especially the Croq'Lobster. It is a Maine lobster delivered alive and then poached medium rare on warm brioche bread, decorated with Swiss cheese, spring onions, olive oil, and basil, and served with a salad and a small portion of gratin dauphinois. It's very good.
