An air of nostalgia hangs over the tables in this fabulously retro-style bistrot. Once the haunt of the washer-women of the launderette opposite, it bears witness to working class Paris and its social activities at the beginning of the 20th Century. The décor is made of objects accumulated over the years, lending this drinking spot an authenticity that's a whole world away from the latest in trendy bars. There is always much talking to be done over a glass of good wine and maybe black pudding with apple or a slab of steak with pepper sauce...
