Simone Rocha: When confronted with solely choosing one meal in a restaurant, I discover it laborious to decide on. However I’ve all the time beloved La Chaumière, tucked in off the facet of the street up a mountain above Good.
The sensation of arriving at nightfall after a salty day within the sea and discovering its tiny sign up lights is all the time magical. I’ve been many instances during the last 20 years with my household and buddies, from being a child rolling round within the boot of the automotive on the best way again down, to bringing my daughters and them drawing on the desk. I like the room. It’s easy, with stone flooring, small tables with white tablecloths (my favorite), and steel chairs with woven wicker bases.

The room centres round one open hearth with a picket block in entrance the place the meat is ready. It is rather relaxed and feels low key. You can be in somebody’s lounge.
All the things is cooked on the hearth, basically magical meat and potatoes. To start out, I’d suggest the large wicker basket of crisp crudités. Then the côte de boeuf and potatoes. And at last the apple tart, which is accompanied by a large bucket of cream that’s spooned onto your plate. Good!
