Gaulart & Maliclet: Fast and French

One of the best restaurants we visited on our May trip to Charleston was the most definitely un-fussy Gaulart & Maliclet. They serve up breakfast, lunch and dinner in what seems to be an always crowded dining room. We were favorably seated near the back of the place in a room off the main dining area at a counter open to the kitchen. The place does have hints of "we're better earth people than you", but that's likely a result of the staff being comprised of perhaps the only boho people I saw while in Charleston.

The food isn't all strictly French but it's definitely French-y, and my cucumber yogurt soup served with three cheeses was a perfect lunch. The menu is very affordable and while varied isn't overwhelming, especially if you just focus on the specials.
