Midways between the apartment and the Sacré-Coeur, the Carotte bleue is a small bar where you can eat.
The food is unexpensive and unpretientious.
First you come here for the "Tigre de Bengale" ginger based planteur, the you discover the food : every plate is a little gem of inventivity and taste.
Currently my favorite place in the area.
