'Le Coq Hardi' (The Dauntless Rooster) is a proud emblem of France. With a name like that and a reputation to live up to, The Rooster is expected to crow a new song every dawning day. And now, "Le Coq", built in 1827, is sprucer, more refined and more sumptuous than ever! The result is today's new Le Coq, dauntlessly bending over backwards to bring you the best service imaginable, and much more. So come on in and try us out!
