L'imprévu, Restaurant in Mérignac, France
L'imprévu is a restaurant in Mérignac, in southwestern France, offering meals both to eat in and to take away. The space includes two indoor rooms, two outdoor areas, and a parking lot behind the building.
The restaurant was founded by Aïcha Bennour and her family, after her husband, a former truck driver with a love of cooking, decided to open his own place. After closing for several months, it reopened in April under the family's management.
L'imprévu sits on the Avenue de Magudas in Mérignac, mixing home-style cooking with the speed of a fast-casual spot. The outdoor terraces fill up quickly on sunny days, and the lunch hour draws the biggest crowd of regulars.
The restaurant is open every day from late morning until late at night, and no reservation is needed to get a table. You can also order online or eat on site, and the parking lot behind the building makes it easy to come by car.
The family plans to add a weekend brunch with both sweet and savory dishes to the menu in the near future. They also make their own fries and desserts from scratch, which is not common among fast-casual spots.
