Le Mesclun





Le Mesclun is a fantastic little french restaurant in Old Town, just a couple minutes off the west end of the Croisette. It's up a windy little street that's lined with adorable restaurants. Those are the tough tables to grab, as each place has only 6-10 tables and dinners last 2-3 hours. We went as a group and had one of the more amazing meals of our stay. I ended up with a celeraic soup with some kind of mushroom garnish, cod with vegetable "paint" (basically puree of beets, celery and carrot, each mixed with butter, that the chef smudged on the plate) and a chocolate lava cake with pistachio gelato. We sipped a white burgundy and thoroughly enjoyed our 2+ hour dinner.
