Kabëng

Bordeaux


A mixed bag of retro tables and chairs furnishes this self-proclaimed 'urban eatery', best known for its excellent choice of artisanal craft beers from Bordeaux, the neighbouring Dordogne, Scotland, Holland, California and so forth. Nachos, pulled-pork nuggets, burgers and 'petites portions de trucs super cool' (small portions of super-cool bites) provide the perfect culinary accompaniment.
