If you followed most guidebooks tips on where to dine out, you'll be safe but maybe a little disappointed.
Tried out the recommendations at Auberge, Cat Cat hotel, Mimosa family restaurant and its neighbour.
Most restaurants' quality of food is more or less the same, so I wouldn't really have (or needed) to follow the guide. I suppose the rule of thumb would be - if you are hungry, head for the nearest place with a not so big crowd. Don't expect too much from wondrous description of menu.
Except for Chocolat & Baguette - it's very good cafe food and pastries and slightly more expensive than abovementioned.

It was a very blissful retreat on a chilly day, tucked into a hot chocolate and the finest pastries in town. Picnics and light meals are also available.
