This is an unsual place, owned by an unsual couple, full of unusual people. First, the place. The restaurant is decorated with style: an imposing bar, neo-baroque chairs, colourful walls and adjacent tables. It's famous for its wild ambience on soccer games nights, as much as for its hype Saturday night parties. Now the couple. Lydie from France and Edouard from Lebanon met in Brazil and combined their respective cooking talent and people skills to open the only restaurant in Paris that dares to offer a double menu (Brazilian dishes on one side and Lebanese on the other side of the menu). Finally chances are, you're going to be seated next to Brazilian journalists, artists, film makers or French models and actors. All of them are friends or relatives of the couple. Even on your first visit, you'll be treated as a friend. Then you'll go back again and you'll surely become a fan, and a friend. On top of that, the magnificent all-you-can-eat Sunday brunch (including orange juice and mint tea) only costs 24 euros.
