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.
