Fabulous Fine Dining

When we were making our way to our hotel yesterday Ian spotted a sign to a restaurant that caught his attention. He took note and later googled the restaurant, La Table du Sommelier, and it received very good reviews so we booked a table.

The restaurant was about a 5 minute walk from our hotel and it did not disappoint. We sat on their covered terrace and chose a fixed menu - entree, main and dessert. We chose a local Gaillac wine (Red) to accompany our meal and it was fabulous.

For dinner Ian and Brigitte had the prawns wrapped in brick pastry with salad and I chose the steak tartare. Both entrees were excellent, in fact the steak tartare was the best I have ever had.

For mains Ian and Brigitte chose the veal and I chose the fish. Again, the quality of the meals was excellent.

For dessert Ian chose an Apricot concoction and Brigitte and I chose a raspberry and chocolate creation. Both desserts were sublime.

We finished with an espresso which was very good. The quality of the coffee in France seems to have improved since last year.Read more
