Tous les dimanches c’est pareil. Après avoir erré sans itinéraires précis sur les internets, on finit par dépit dans son canap’, une boite de take away sur les genoux, alors qu’en fait, on serait bien sortis de chez nous. Mais où?
On a fait l’exercice pour vous, et on vous a réunit nos meilleures adresses pour (très bien) manger le dimanche soir.
Et pour être tout à fait honnêtes, on l’a aussi fait pour nous.

(Restaurant – caterer previously called Saucisse)
I was sitting at the same table as last time, the one in the corner, where the angle of the bench slightly differs from the angle of the table, making it a bit awkward to sit, while watching the remaining customers lazily finish their daily special. It was on a Saturday at 3pm, the clouds were slowly taking over the previously blue sky, and Mad About You was echoing in the almost empty restaurant.
Inside, the atmosphere was peaceful. I put my book down to check the menu again, thinking whether I was going to go for dessert or not. I briefly hovered the dessert part – French Toast (9€) -, and scrolled to the bottom, where below the lines about allergies and intolerances, I found the word “bisou”. I smiled and waved at the waiter.

The place is lively and colorful, and it’s hard to decide where to set our eyes at the first glance. But this lovely chaos is only visual. At Met Plaizier, the atmosphere is calm and relaxing, and makes us want to come back on weekdays, to take a chair at the big table at the back, and work quietly with a cappuccino or a homemade lemonade next to us.

Light and softness were the two words that directly came to mind when stepping into Marina Bautier’s space. The office at the back blends in perfectly with the showroom, shop, and since not long, a tiny café. You’ll find beauty here everywhere, if you know how to look.
