As shocking as it could appear, that is the primary time the weblog has visited a gluten-free restaurant (even if all our accommodations have gluten-free choices for breakfast), and at Judy – the place all the things is natural and/or native, and even the terrace is not any smoking (yay!) – you don’t get the sensation that one thing’s lacking, fairly the opposite in truth…
Though they do have restaurant-shop on the opposite aspect of the Seine, Judy is most undoubtedly a Left Financial institution affair, with a presence in la Grande Épicerie (the equal of the Harrods meals corridor and a part of stylish division retailer Le Bon Marché), and their principal handle is right here on rue Fleurus, seconds away from the Jardin du Luxembourg, and thus our accommodations.
Right here, they’ve expanded subsequent door to supply a takeaway retailer (you may even order on-line right here in case you want) and added an additional terrace. This may be the place to go to if you wish to get some meals and picnic within the close by gardens.
As for the restaurant itself, housed on the bottom ground nook of a candy and sometimes Parisian constructing, the terrace is an honest measurement and the inside is spacious and vivid with a excessive ceiling, fairly staircase (main as much as the bogs) and loads of pure wooden. It’s a spot that makes you’re feeling comfy.

Apparently, with its ingenious lactose-free and refined sugar-free choices, the enterprise is flourishing, and despute the noon rush, service is each environment friendly and relaxed.
We began with a recent juice (accessible in numerous variations – dawn, crimson, inexperienced, and many others.) which is claimed to ‘reinforce your immunity’ 😃 and a shot, which we are able to solely think about doing us the world of excellent.
For our principal dishes we selected:

We couldn’t depart with out attempting a dessert:
