The beauty of the bistro menu is its simplicity, and staples like onion soup, steak frites and cream brulee are touchstones by which to judge relative quality and execution ... well, Jules let me down: the onion soup was cold so that the cheese remained unmelted, the fries were of the mcdonald's variety, the steak was seasoned but slight, and the creme brulee was creme brulee ... an appealingly rustic atmosphere though.
