Reveillon @ Bistreaux @ Maison Dupuy Hotel

 

Bistreaux

The Maison Dupuy Hotel has a history of great restaurants punctuated by less ambitious places. The Bistreaux is in the latter category, the all-day cafe for the hotel. Despite that, the kitchen rises to the occasion with a well-assembled Reveillon menu with a Creole flavor.
