I was alone and arrived very early for dinner. The 'patron' was just opening up and watering his pot plants at the front door. I was seated and I ordered a carafe of rosé, which arrived with nibbles: The restaurant began to fill up, and the 'patron' became more animated. the place is festooned with memorabilia and photographs, and there was plenty to hold the attention. I soon engaged in conversation with the two couples at the next table - so engaged, in fact, that they wanted to continue the evening with 'digestifs' at their home - an offer, which, at 10.30 in the evening, I politely declined. The food was excellent! I started with a 'flamiche' - a small cheese tart containing bubbling Maroilles cheese. For my main course, I chose a fillet steak au poivre - sublime. There were various desserts, but I went for the crème brulée, flavoured with vanilla and, yes, tobacco! The whole evening was excellent! The food, the setting, the ambiance and the quirky 'patron', who was a hoot! Go there, if you're near Cassel!
