Wilde Kitchen - A unique insight into a french country kitchen. Located in the Cherbourg Peninsula a little gem awaits! Visit www.wildekitchen.net for details Thanks
Roasted Cametmber - An original way of serving a cheese course... Great as a 'light' lunch or supper, kids love it , adults love it and you'll love it too! You simply choose a nice ripe Camembert IN A WOODEN BOX. Remove the cheese from the wrapping and cut a cross on top. Meanwhile, soak the box in some water (prevents burning) Then put the cheese (minus the wrapper) back in the box, close the box and place on a grill over nice, glowing embers until melted (about 10 mins.). Peel back the skin and serve the hot, melting délice with endive leaves, apple slices, celery or crusty bread.... Nothing goes to waste......great.. (Alternatively, you can place the cheese, minus the wrapper, in it's box, in a moderate oven for about 10 minutes.) Pont l'Eveque would do the job nicely too!
Normandy Restaurants and Bars
Normandy Restaurants
Le Vivier - rue Gustave-Flaubert, Trouville. The restaurant is located in the Flaubert Hotel. The huge mansion that is home to the hotel is located at the beginning of the boardwalk. The restaurant Le Vivier is highly recommended but not cheap.
Les Vapeurs 160 boulevard F. Moureaux. A good fish restaurant that is located opposite the old half-timbered fish market. As you might expect the fish is very fresh and well cooked.
Chez Miocque - at 81 rue Eugène-Colas, Deauville. This Parisian-style eating place serves excellent food that justifies the high prices
Flunch - 60 rue des Carmes, Rouen. If you want a cheapish place to eat try this big, self-service restaurant near the cathedral. The food is fresh and of good quality.
Le Pommier - 40 rue des Cuisiniers, Bayeux. The menu here is based on the meat and dairy Norman cuisine. However there is always a vegetarian choice on the menu. Reasonably priced and good quality.
Normandy Bars & Clubs
Le Cafe Curieux - 3 rue des Fosses Louis VIII, Rouen. Avoid this place if you have a headache, it is an extremely noisy, busy bar. The music is techno and drum 'n' bass soundtracks.
La Luna - 26 rue St-Etienne-des-Tonneliers, Rouen. If you like salsa dancing then visit this glamorous nightclub, which specialises in South American themes
Big Ben Pub - 95 rue du Gros-Horloge, Rouen. Situated under a large clock, which proved to be the inspiration for the name, this bar is always very busy, outside and in. They have Karaoke sessions at weekends.
Hotel Churchill - 14/16 Rue St Jean, Bayeux. The bar in this hotel is friendly and comfortable and the service is excellent.
