Addendum II: Wow, Can They Cook

Okay, both literally and figuratively I (Bill) need to eat my words. After finding nothing open in this town on this day, we ate at “the overpriced hotel”. Boy, was I wrong!

This was at or near the top of any meal we’ve had in all of France, and that includes Nice,  Antibes, and the whole of the Chemin.

The meal started with an “amuse bouche”, much like a gazpacho. Then an appetizer (for Bill, an array of shrimp remarkably presented). Then the pork plat principal (again, ornately presented), the cheese sampler, and finally the mousse dessert presented so beautifully, it would have put to shame a Michelin star restaurant. It was good!

We’re both stuffed, but very, very content. We are also thankful that we were forced to eat at this hotel restaurant!

Such is the life of a Pelerin!

  1. It’s a good thing you’re doing all this walking in order to work off the great food you eat! You know how curious I am, so next great meal, take a picture of it! Thank you so much for continuing to share every day. I look forward to reading your missives. Love to you both

    1. Hi Willow! Thanks for the post. Yep, the food is great and we do have to walk in order to burn some of it off… Last night I didn’t have my phone at dinner, so no photos. In addition, the continuing plague here on these walks is the absence of a reliable internet signal. Yesterday was again poor. Even with that, our observation of the town that went to sleep (it was eerie), merited spending time with the poor signal. And then, when I received my comeuppance regarding the quality of the meal, I again had to sit through the signal to apologize😊.
