Café Ginger is a restaurant in Paris specialised in vegan, organic, homemade food with several gluten free options on the menu.
My friends Ann and Chloe from one blog that I love, Veggie Magnifique, have been telling me of Café Ginger for quite a while now.
Too many good reasons for me to go and try it.
I went there one day for lunch, around midday, and the restaurant was quickly full. Very often this is a good sign. The team was nice and welcoming, this is a good sign too. I immediately felt at ease and I was eager to try what’s was up on the menu for the day.
My main gluten free course was a dish made of several foods: lentils, chickpeas, salad, vegetables, whole rice and a gratin of sweet potatoes, kale and shitaké mushrooms.
I found it fresh, perfectly seasoned and good.
At Café Ginger, Céline – the lovely lady in my picture below – explains me that all the desserts are always gluten free – feeling very lucky indeed.
I got tempted by a great, good looking gluten free raw carrot cake, with hazelnuts, almonds, figues, dates.
It was naturally sweetened, crunchy and tasty. I did like it!
My lunch over, I headed for a little walk in the Marais nearby, the sun was on the menu that day too and as it is rare to have it in Paris, when it’s up, I am all for it!
Then if sun is coupled with a nice lunch, that makes my day even brighter.
I can’t but recommend Café Ginger!
