Busy, buzzing, brilliant.
Friendly staff.
The lentils with poached egg as a starter was a revelation; utterly delicious and a local product we've been meaning to try for years.
The duck with sauteed potatoes was elevated with a delicious creamy mushroom sauce. It went very well with the Chinon, a local red wine.
There was a potential disaster - they ran out of bread - but don't worry, someone had been dispatched to the bakers! Delicious, crusty, fluffy, perfect baguette with which to mop up the sauce. Ahhhh.
Choosing a dessert was difficult as the diners around us had all had different and apparently delicious ends to their meals. Ours were just as good: spéculos cheese cake and "snickers au face" the snickers dessert means I'll never really enjoy a normal snickers again - so good it may have ruined snickers for me.
I'm coming back.
Arrive too early for lunch on a Saturday and there's a great market right in front of the restaurant.
