In Les Petites Sorcières Bistrot (The Little Witches) seating is quite cramped; the set menu is not intriguingly imaginative, although it changes daily and some days may be more adventures than others and there is always the à la carte menu; the wine list is limited; and the time the plate takes to arrive from kitchen to table has been too long on some occasions; albeit in all fairness to a new restaurant and these small niggles aside, it is a comfortable little place with very reasonably priced set menus from Ghislaine Arabian who is coming from the famed Ledoyen.
She may also have a witch’s sixth-sense as Samantha did in “Bewitched” and realizes that intense three-star cuisine is not what is in vogue—and more to the point—affordable these days, and has come-around to concentrate on accommodating the local customers in this pleasant neighborhood bistro concocting gratifying cuisine with produce acquired from her reliable sources.
