In this tiny smidge of a restaurant, the daily menu is written on a chalkboard exclusively in French, taking up an entire wall. (Don't worry, the staff, if not locals seated next to you, will help with translations.) The wine list is adventurous, with rotating regions as focal points -- Loire, Alsace, and Jura on a recent visit. A turnip salad with fresh dill and tarragon came sliced... plus
