Braserie des Demoiselles - Rochefort

Gave this place a try as Somerset has little to offer in Asian dining, however the sign says Steak House & Hybati grill and I don't see one except for back

My daughter had the California roll and tuna roll, and they both lacked flavor and were warm when served.

Yamato is one of the only Japanese restaurants in Somerset..

There are numerous cafes dotted around the square and surrounding streets but this one was busy so guessed it's probably a reasonable place to stop for a lunch snack. There's outside seating as well as under parasol umbrellas - it was a hot day so we like most customers opted for undercover - every now and then a cool breeze blew through. It was certainly busy and staff were run off their feet - however, if you make yourself noticed you will get attention. We decided on hot drinks and omelette/crepes - drinks and omelette arrived surprisingly quick - the omlette came with a large portion of fries plus salad. In my opinion it was very good value coming in overall at just over 16 euro. The only negative is some customers were smoking at tables but other more considerate types did move away to light up.

I suppose if you can't speak French you'll always have problems in France but having had a bit of banter with the waiter about well-done steak, when it arrived shortly after, it was absolutely perfect. My wife, who is fussy about her steak being well-done thoroughly enjoyed it as well. Add to that the very pleasant waiter, the view over the ice-skating, everyone in the festive mood and a bit of pleasant banter (in French, of-course) this was a really enjoyable experience! Would recommend this restaurant...definitely!
