Rest. suggestions outside Paris
Suggestions would be appreciated for Honfleur, Le Mont-St-Michel (not Mere Poulard). Is it worth the drive to Etretat to eat at Les Roches Blanches? And in Chartres for only a lunch: Vieille Maison or Le Buisson Ardent or La Truie que File? Also in Trouville-Sur-Mer how about Les Vapeurs? Many thanks for your thoughts. <BR> <BR>

Hi Wendy <BR> <BR>We had a great lunch in Chartres at the restaurant just to the right of the cathedral as you're facing it. I think the name was Serpente. Had read about it on this forum. Somebody in the kitchen there really cares about food. <BR> <BR>Oh please tell us all about your trip when you return. <BR> <BR>Bon appetit et bon voyage

Wendy: <BR> <BR>In Honfleur, the best, and certainly most expensive, place to eat is at the Ferme St-Siméon, on the terrace if possible. This is where the Impressionist painters used to gather when they were in the area, and the setting, service, and food are exquisite. <BR>Also in Honfleur, but at the other end of the price spectrum (as in really inexpensive) is Le Champlain, 6 place Hamelin. We've also enjoyed La Tortue, 36, rue de l'homme-de-Bois.
