I read your post and really liked it. I don't know what's going on ever there, since it was great when Maximin was around more often. Maybe he's too busy with his place down south to keep tabs on this kitchen now, but one way or another, it's slipped badly.

Cheers, Alec

The sardines and John Dory were sublime. However, both preparations of the langoustines at Fables de la Fontaine — really everything at Fables — were just so delicious. As refined and nuanced as the food is there, it still felt as guttural as a Texas smokehouse, which to me is the mark of a truly great meal.

Had a truly excellent meal here and can’t wait to go back, which I’ll be doing soon, and if there’s any change, I’ll let you know.

For the price, it was no Gaigne or Gazzetta, and the service was spotty. Would have preferred to go across the street to Verre Bouteille. Glad to know they have fixed things up.
