Restaurant l'Assiette aux Fromages

Vendredi le 12 Novembre. We found a restaurant in the latin quatier... a cheese restaurant! It specialised in doing raclette, I opted for the set menu of Soup d'Oignon, Tartiflette, and I had ordered a plate of cheese for my dessert my changed my order to Tarte au Pomme as I felt too stuffed.
