At Restaurant Brindille in the 16th arrondissement near the Parc des Princes, we had fresh anchovies, poached eggs with mushroom sauce, salmon, and brandade ( a purée of salt cod, olive oil, and milk, and is a specialty of the city of Nîmes in the Languedoc region in the south of France. ) We had this delicious meal in less than an hour in a very small, former café turned restaurant with an open kitchen.
