00:00In this small town in the north of France, this restaurant is always fully booked.
00:11A month ago, the establishment won the Michelin Guide's Bib Gourmand,
00:16a prize that recognised restaurants that serve high-quality food at great value.
00:21A starter, main course and dessert cost around 40 euros.
00:25It's fairly reasonable, you have to try it.
00:27I was intrigued to come and test it.

01:17The other lies in these fields.
01:18All the ingredients come within a few kilometers of the restaurant.
01:23Cabbage, parsnip, a bit of coriander, beetroot, squash.
01:28Local seasonal products at a fair price.
01:31It allows us to express ourselves creatively on the plate
01:34and to constantly refresh our cuisine and menu.
01:38The Bib Gourmet is not a stepping stone to prestigious Michelin stars,
