The menu is simplicity at its best: several shades of duck. Confit de canard, foie gras de canard and succulent maigret de canard, that matches the best that I've tasted. Crispy matchstick potatoes were all we needed to finish this light meal.

Antoine our adorable waiter, and at my age, I can use that expression, and M agreed, suggested an excellent Moulin à Vent at 7 euros. Since there was only about one glass left he returned to fill our empty glasses-on the house, of course.
