After welcoming over 560,000 customers, serving tens of thousands of “œufs mimosa” and “tartes Tatin” at Le Petit Bouillon Pharamond in Les Halles at the heart of Paris, Benjamin Moréel and Christopher Préchez have exported their winning concept to Lille. Within the walls of a legendary address, the oldest in town, they propose the same recipe as in Paris : a menu “100% grand’ma” tweaked with references to northern France, continuous service and a modest bill. A real treat ! Le Petit Bouillon Alcide, 5 rue des Débris Saint-Etienne, 59 800 Lille. (03 20 40 80 00). www.petitbouillonalcide.com
