The first Réunion restaurant in Nîmes, Le Straw en Queue has been quietly located in the city. Its mysterious name is borrowed from a beautiful marine bird, an emblem of the island. A family case where you feel the presence of the mother, a good cook that flies over the recipes of the Indian Ocean and the son, nice to service. In a very wise atmosphere, the by a chaloupé musical background, we discover a multicultural map that regularly enriched new specialities. As an aperitif, ti-punch, with rum Carts, agricultural distillery of Réunion, always accompanied by a mixed plate of hot starters: samoussas, pork ravioli of Chinese origin, not forgetting sweet peppers, delicious pucks to chickpeas, grass and corn, a little bit but not too much. There is a white and red cabbage salad and the famous sausage rougaille, a typical Réunion dish, a seasoning made of onions, chopped cabbage, spices (curry, turmeric), basmati rice and a pink lentil puree, with Indian inspiration. And, dessert, exotic fruit salad, coconut pie, Bourbon vanilla ice or tiramisu? Look for the mistake!
