Le Boudoir is the latest address where you can meet up with friends for a chat and treat at lunchtime. A real little alcove dedicated to gourmet temptation, it offers a bright warm decor. Lola, the cook and excellent pastry-maker, prepares recipes based on fresh market produce, constantly renewed, under the benevolent eyes of Julien Durville and Christine and Gilles Ballestra of the nearby Luna Rossa. The menu opts for” snacking chic” to suit all tastes, sweet and savory, with 5 starters, 5 main courses and 10 desserts. By way of example, an artichoke salad sprinkled with chips of Parmesan and thin slices of truffles, a Simmertal rib steak with flap mushroom cream, and panna cotta in a crunchy chocolate version. Simple and tasty, with a discerning selection of wines from Provence. Later in the day, treat yourself to a gourmet break, with Kusmi tea and homemade madeleines. 10 rue Chauvain, Nice (04 93 87 55 54).
