The Cafe des Freres Prevert

I strongly recommend you to have a glass of wine/champagne and some snacks. Then you will feel safe. Otherwise, stay away from all drinks containing ice cube. I ordered an artisanal limonade. I had the wrong idea to look at the waitress behind the bar...when she was pouring my glass with ice cubes using ... HER HAND DIRECTLY!!! I am sorry but I have never seen a waitress taking directly the ice cubes with her fingers then put them in the glass of a customer. I am sorry but I came to Musée Maillol to enjoy the Giacometti exhibition and not all the bacteria on the hand of the waitress. I am shocked to see how a basic hygiene rule has been disregarded! Then, I was about to ask for another glass...

At the beginning of the 50ties, a famous cabaret was opened there by the brother of the poet Jacques Prévert. Marilyn Monroe was there with Montand, Boris Vian too, and a lot of later well-known singers, like Barbara, made their first move in this place....In the basement of the Musee Maillol now, this fantastic ancient cellar was totaly renovated in a quite cosy style. We took there a lunch, with a delicious home made vegetable quiche, a green salad and a glass of good Rosé from Provence. For dessert, we couldn't resist choosing a piece of pistachio cake with strawberries inside. Very helpful and smiling service : don't forget the tip.

The salads at least Matisse and Gauguin are good but over elaborate, e.g. Grapefruit, Chicken, mango, spinach, mangetout, sesame. Would definitely come back probably to try a quiche, the cakes also looked delicious. Great selection of teas/infusions as well. Outstanding service. Just lovely...space for a quiet interlude.

Simple, good food, comfortable seating, excellent service in a magnificent vaulted cellar. Well worth a visit if you're visiting the museum.
