  2. B

    Maquis le Mandingue

    Dishes such as fish of the season, in gombo (green vegetable), yassa (lemon, onion and mustard) and arachide sauces, are available in this popular but tranquil place with a garden and, on some nights, a harmonica player.

  3. Chez Clarisse

    This small French restaurant, next to the US embassy, rates highly with readers. If you are feeling ambitious try the brochette des escargots (snails cooked on a skewer).

  4. Restaurant Romantica

    A limited menu but a mellow atmosphere and a great location next to Hôtel du Lac, in view of the zemi-johns hurling themselves over Pont Ancien.
