New branches doff their beret to the vintage interior of the original, but never achieve its quirky, Toulouse-Lautrec warmth. Here you're as likely to find yourself sitting next to Hermès-bedecked ladies as Soho-ites or businessmen killing time between meetings. Cappuccino came with a thick layer of foam as distinct as the layers of the garishly decorated gateaux in the counter display. A big pile of moist tuna and plump white anchovies featured in a generous salade niçoise - though grey rings around the egg yolks are never a pleasant sight. Custard doughnut had a glazed plastic look and bubble-gum flavour, but was made from good light dough and decent crème pâtissière.
