Behind the Natural History Museum, in what was once an antiques shop, you’ll find a cosy yet elegant restaurant with brick and marble features and velvet banquettes. Chef Jean-François Pantaleon is a great lover of good food, and offers gourmet neo-Burgundian cuisine (his speciality is veal sweetbreads) that is magnificently well executed, with top-quality local sourcing. Great value for money at lunchtime. View from the terrace onto the tree-lined museum grounds.
