Seven months after it was destroyed by fire, a popular South Wales restaurant has re-opened its doors to devotees of French dining.
Three years ago husband and wife team Arwel and Jayne Griffith-Parry opened their bistro Le Petit Bouchon in Neath, only to see their dream go up in smoke in January this year when a fire broke out in an adjacent property.
However with the help of friends and loyal customers the bistro has re-opened in a new location and with a change of name – Le Petit Bulle.
“We have been overwhelmed with the support shown by people and the offers of practical help we have received have been amazing, we really can’t thank everyone enough,” said Arwel, whose welcoming front of house style combined with Jayne’s culinary skills has earned them top ratings.
Situated below Neath’s Georgian Town Hall, Le Petit Bulle is only a few hundred yards from their previous restaurant. It prides itself on offering superb French style food using locally sourced ingredients, and an extensive choice of wines and champagne.
