Il - Bruay-la-Buissière

Un expected choice of restaurant in a place that we did not expect. We stayed on night at the Ibis in Bruay-la-Buissiere on our way to the south. Looked like an industrial area around the hotel but a few yards away there was a choice of restaurants and things to do.great Italian restaurant with a good menu and wine list. Excellent service and not expensive.

Location in pretty nice in consideration of the surrounding restaurants of the big commercial area. Service is really fast. I took cappellacci with truffles but they are served folded in cream killing any flavor. Good portions and correct price cappellacci at about 13€, Prosecco glass at 4,5€ . As dessert I choose cannoli, curiously half filled only , and tasted like little ‘aged’. Better than the junk food in the vicinity but I wouldn’t come from home to eat here. Lot of parking spaces. Accept all credit cards.

We stopped at the IBIS nearly next door on the way home after 9 hours driving. The greeting at the door and service at the table was so friendly and welcoming. The drinks were quickly served too. The menu is wide ranging enough with all the standard Italian fare but all prepared well and all of our mains were delicious. Overall I'd highly recommend after if you're staying the the IBIS or nearby. (10% discount if you're at the IBIS) All in all a great meal and the waiter was great.

Then you'll see. In front of the restaurant, you're looking at the menu. You're saying the choice is not huge. you choose a carbonara plate and that's where magic works. simply a slaughter, no one has to do with the carbonara that dips in the fresh cream, the thing where at the end of the forks you are bent. It's the big class in the paname, I highly recommend.

If you are looking for a little holiday in italie, you just found. Indeed, the frame and the map transport you directly there! all there is pizza with pasta and risotto and balsamic. Don’t forget to take a plank of charcuterie and cheese from terroirs to aperitif. What about the smile of the welcome? I told you: it is the Italian sun!
