La Mirabelle

La Mirabelle's menu is a focused celebration of Alsatian cuisine, with flammekueche taking center stage. This regional specialty—a thin, crispy flatbread topped with various ingredients—is executed here with exceptional attention to the fundamentals. The crust achieves that crucial balance of crispness and slight chewiness that defines a proper flammekueche, providing the perfect base for both traditional and creative toppings.

The savory flammekueche selection (€11.90-€15.90) ranges from classic combinations to more inventive interpretations, all maintaining the authentic spirit of Alsatian cooking. Standout options include the Forestière, featuring mushrooms and forest-inspired ingredients, and the Gratinée, which adds a rich, cheese-forward dimension to the traditional preparation. Each flammekueche showcases quality ingredients and careful preparation, with the thin crust allowing the toppings to shine without overwhelming the palate.

For those seeking the complete Alsatian experience, the restaurant also serves traditional choucroute—the hearty, fermented cabbage dish that's a cornerstone of regional cuisine. This offering provides a heartier alternative to the flammekueche, perfect for cooler weather or when you're craving something more substantial.

The sweet flammekueche (€11.90-€13.90) deserve special mention, transforming the savory specialty into a delightful dessert. The Pomme Cannelle Flambée exemplifies this approach, combining caramelized apples with cinnamon on the signature crispy base. These sweet versions provide a unique and satisfying conclusion to your meal, offering something you won't find at most Parisian restaurants.

The menu's focus on flammekueche and key Alsatian dishes, rather than attempting to cover all of French cuisine, demonstrates a commitment to doing a few things exceptionally well. Vegetarian options ensure that plant-based diners can fully participate in the Alsatian experience, making La Mirabelle accessible to a wide range of preferences while maintaining its regional authenticity.
