Cote Brasserie is an amazing French restaurant located in Muswell Hill, North London. I have
recently dinned there as a friend of mine advised visiting the place not only due to reasonably
priced food but also the magnificent décor which makes you feel as if you were in one of those
cosy Parisian’s restaurants.
– give some basic info about the restaurant e.g. name, location, reason you decided to visit it,
maybe you heard something about the place before you actually visited it, who visits the
restaurant most often.
Being a vegan prevented me from selecting such delicacies as duck breast or steak sirloin

walnuts.

Overall, I’d really recommend Cote Brasserie as it serves delicious and relatively inexpensive
French food, without a doubt it would even appeal to a French dinner looking for tasty dishes
accompanied by caring and professional staff, if only the interior was better.
