La Bastide d’Opio
Every once in a while, you stumble upon a restaurant that suits you perfectly. This was our experience with La Bastide d’Opio. Staying in an apartment only a stone’s throw away, we would walk past the numerous restaurants lining the narrow streets near Sainte Sulpice in the 6th arrondissement. I have such fond memories of the delicious food in Provence that my attention was immediately drawn to La Bastide d’Opio. My husband loves a seat with a view, and the first little table was wide open and seemed to have our name written on it.
As we scanned the menu, we found just we are looking for under the Entrées or appetizers, cassolette de ravioles du Royan à la crème de basilic. We asked if we might order a larger portion for our meal. After checking with the chef, the waitress agreed to do so.
We were thrilled with the results. The delicate raviolis and goat cheese with basil cream became our newest comfort food. We must have repeated this same experience 4 times in our 7-day visit! Visit the web site and enjoy a moment at 9, Rue Guisarde : http://www.bistrot-opio.com/video.html
