Upstairs is an art gallery, and the restaurant reflects the arty interests of the owners. The restaurant
is located in the middle of a housing estate, which isn't what you would expect but the place was still
full on a Wednesday lunchtime in March. We felt this bore testament to how nice the place is. Take
a short walk along the Canal Du Midi and cut through the houses. You'll need a map but you will
have a lovely walk, and your efforts will be rewarded with a lovely meal.
