Margot snatched the divine little recipe of her grandmother who all her life maintained a mermaid silhouette. So when you filled up on wine and saucisson: go for a « BAB » evening.
The concept? Replace your dinner with a big bowl of large curd farmer cheese and banana chunks.

The even more sexy alternative? Replace farmer cheese with Frozen Yogurt, the delicious 0% ice cream.

- raw fish + fruit for dessert
If you can choose your own restaurant: head for YOOM, our darling rendez-vous for dim-sums.
Their menu: hot tea + hakao, their delicious very light shrimp raviolis). It really fills you up …
