Bugs Bunny Hare Jordan VII Bordeaux
L’autre Salon de The
Crime: vegetables and fruit salad w/ balsamic vinegar to balance my French cheese, wine and baguette diet.
Scene: L’autre salon de the, 11 rue des Remparts, Bordeaux
Investigation: After a day in Angouleme and a ride to Bordeaux we were exhausted and took some rest at the hotel. Surfing on the net’s didn’t got us where we were looking for. So off we go (or went) for the ultimate quest…
After a 10minutes walk in the centre ville, we ran into L’autre salon de the and were attracted by the pastries, baroque interior and the french crowd eating tons of dessert with tea served in cute cups at 9:30PM on a Saturday. Wish there was such an ‘accessible’ place in Amsterdam….
The place had a high tea vibe, with ‘antique’ paintings of random people on the walls and the hostess was awesome. A Madame with a lot of humor which made you feel at home.
I ordered a vegetable and fruit salad from the market. As seen on the picture it was quite basic. Nothing fancy. After peeking at the neighbors, I could see that the tartes (quiches), viand et poisson dishes looked very good, but I needed some vitamin C.
I was very full after eating this full plate of nature with to much different kinds of ingredients (i’ve counted 10! you know, less is more) and had no space for the pies :(
I recommend all when visiting L’Autre Salon de the: go for the pies and tea and don’t be distracted other things on the menu.
