Ardeche Civic 21 May

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Present: Megan, Karen, Jim, Ron, Kim, Andrew

I think we went to Ardeche to celebrate Ron's birthday (which was the actual day) and Karen's imminent retirement.  Lots to celebrate so we went a bit upmarket.

 

In the excitement of the evening I forgot to take notes, so not very much to report.  It's a bog standard French restaurant, always reliable, always good quality with many of the standard French dishes on offer.

We had the French onion soup, twice cooked souffle, crepes, duck a l'orange, steak, chicken, all done with lovely rich french sauces.  The seafood crepes were fabulous, as was the steak, the duck was lovely, but just a standard a l'orange nothing special.  But we got what we came for, so that was enough. (Can we go to Asian next time?)

The ambience pleasant, but a bit noisy.  Wait staff good,
