L'Allantoine

In Rivesaltes today for the dentist we needed somewhere to lunch and were recommended L'Allantoine. No printed menu, just a blackboard. Lunch offered two choices - bistro at 16E for 2 courses or 22 for 2 courses ( but a bit posher). There is an evening menu at 31 (I think)
Restaurant is small but friendly, madam is FoH and monsieur is singlehanded in the kitchen. All food was cooked to order from the limited daily offering . I had the bistro menu and MrC had the other one. It took an hour and a half to get 2 dishes each. The fact that there are magazines available to leaf through should have averted us to the speed! Wasn't a problem for us, but be warned.
My gratine of cod with rice was lovely - hot, well seasoned - and the pa d'ou was heaven! Mr C had a millefeuille of fruits de mer followed by filet mignon with grapes, a courgette flan, a fricasse of red spiced cabbage and a few pommes frites. Lovely quality food at a value for money price.
