Literally stumbled across as it was just outside my hotel! It is incredibly sweet with a cosy warm interior done out in whitewashed wood with comfortable chairs and a sweet little bar. Outside there are nice tables which overlook the sea and although it is by a main road, it is really pretty at night.
We sat inside as the rainy wet weather was definitely not conducive to alfresco dining and perused the extensive menu. U bistrot is a multi-use restaurant as it does breakfast, lunch and dinner so the menu meanders from wraps to waffles to pasta. It even has a reduced calorie section for those who are on a diet or just want to watch what they eat.
Their wine is excellent and I was delighted to have a nice crisp glass of South African Chenin Blanc with my lunch. I had macaroni pasta with cheese and roast cauliflower ‘creamed’ into it. OMG it was glorious, tasty and quite creamy without all the calories attached to the cream. I will be trying this at home and would imagine that for hiding veggies from children in food it might be a good option.
My friend had a burger which was apparently tasty in a great bun. It came with a smear of mayo and tomato so looked excellent as did the chips that came with it. The waiter (I refuse to calls someone a waitron) was an utter sweetie and loved the South African band - Die Antwoord - so obviously had good taste.
I was sad to leave and have a nasty feeling that if this was just around the corner from my house, I might be spending many of my Saturdays enjoying the atmosphere and food. Ubistrot – I salute you.
