The name of the latest venture is more a reference to its location in the courtyard behind the Mamouz brothers' established Marais favourites Andy Wahloo and 404 than anything, well, risqué.
The junk-shop tables and chairs lend some cosy colour to the otherwise stark interior, while the menu boasts plenty of classic French country fare, though with a contemporary twist (the joue de boeuf, or beef cheeks, are highly recommended). And if you should overindulge, you can always work some of it off around the table-tennis table placed handily in the middle of the room. Booking essential.
