Villa Boga Boga...my secret garden


Casaouis told me that Villa Boga Boga has been there forever, so long that they not even remember when was the first time they went there. Some of them told me that had changed for worst, others that was a classic place for crêpes, some others even forgot that existed, so Casamood took the things into his own hands and decided to go and try. The place is hidden, just were you want a place to be hidden to be special, the entrance is simple, the street almost derelict, but with character. The minute you get in you cant avoid to like it, easygoing, smiley, the right lighting, is a bit like getting into your grandmas house on Christmas day, when spirits are high and everything looks clean and homely. That was the exact feeling that Villa Boga Boga gave me. Forget the flashy Le Cabestan and Le Relais de Paris, here we are in the comfort zone, were no one will look at you nor judge you. The indoor area is great and has plenty of intimate corners for a romantic dinner, but it was lunchtime, so we went into the really lovely garden/terrace. The menu is simple yet complete: (really big) salads, some carpaccios, crepes, pizzas, different meats, some fish, and even some pastas. I tried the marinated fish which was excellent and fairly priced, and then I had a crêpe with egg ham and cheese, very yummy. Also tried the pizza but is something to avoid, probably they're on the menu just for kids. Had no dessert but I saw some serious cakes around. They serve alcohol at very affordable price. They have plenty of round tables that to me are the key to a nice evening amongst friends, so next time you want to dinner without stress in a safe environment outside of the fashion circle, look no further than this restaurant.
