French Words: Cafe Rouge and Prix Fixe

Cafe Rouge sent me an email about their prix fixe. To me it's obvious what this means, but I speak French fluently. Words which are obvious to other people who speak Arabic or German or Spanish are not obvious to me.

Cafe - cafe, and of course Cafe meaning coffee
Cafe Rouge - cafe or snack bar with red colouring
fixe - fixed
prix - price
Prix fixe - fixed price
rouge - red colour, red colouring for your cheeks
