Though the restaurant is rustic in appearance, Le Grenier .waiters dont stint on service. There are plenty of them and they are always there when you need them. The best restaurants are never where you expect to find them. This is true the world. Dimitris for example, is well hidden on a tiny side street just off the Avenue des Francais. Its only distinctive landmark is a bright red door. Once inside the door, the guest can only describe the decor as an interesting hodge podge. Dimitri took a large .Lebanese house and didnt change a thing in it. He merely added tables, chairs and his own particular idea of decor. This consists of hundreds of paintings - all gifts of former artist friends, bottles, strange lamps find other bits and pieces of sentimental value to Dimitri himself. The main dining room features a huge, roaring fireplace that is kept ablaze in winter. Summer means a move to the garden which closely resembles an African jungle, the wealth of greenery affording utmost privacy to each individual table.
