Serving provincial French food, this bistro-style restaurant with its leather drapes, large bar, big mirrors and picture windows feels very European. And its chilled-out atmosphere has won it Best Casual Dining 2009. The chefs cook up a storm behind the bar while the staff try to keep up - and the crowd loves it. The food is top quality and very filling, which is as you'd expect from hearty fare - such as venison casserole or Toulouse sausages - and a name that translates as 'blowout'. You can't book, so get there early to secure a table.
