From outside the house, it's impossible to suspect what this place has to offer. Henri & Agnès offer lunch on a terrace like no other. How does it work? You order a lunch box on the ground floor and you enjoy it up 6 stories higher on a terrace made up of recycled wooden pallets. The good news is that the food is great, akin to great eateries like Yotam Ottolenghi's in London or Rose Bakery in Paris. The plates are as varied as they're multi-coloured and the flavours are improved by a subtle mix of textures and cooking times: beet-root mousse with pomegranate; roasted parsnip with honey; Tomato beef heart soup; soup with cauliflower, curcuma and almond; Jerusalem artichoke cream with pureed cashew nuts. The desserts are to die for – merveilleux, pavlova… – and the Scandinavian cabin look is just perfect.
