Expérience/souvenir mémorable : Lieu bien agencé et décoré Les patrons, accueillants et chaleureux, se plient en 4 pour nous satisfaire Horaires flexibles Bon rapport qualité/prix Belle pépite D'autre chaîne/lieu de restauration plus chic n'arrive pas à votre cheville Dommage que 500km nous séparent parce que vous êtes rare
