Food

Tartar of salmon: "Gorgeous!" "OK, but would have expected taw salmon, and to be served with toast. Nice dressing on salad."
Quiche with leek and salad: "Good, but nothing absolutely special."
Crème brûlée: "Really good, but I had better ones, because I'm hopelessly spoiled."
French onion soup: "Broth came separately, making sure the croutons were crisp."
Porc Agilet, with garlic mashed potatoes: "For my taste - the porc was too fatty."
Ray with tomato and capers: "Fish tasty and interesting, but not enough vegetables. Very much butter on the fish -> very rich."

"Excellent value for the money." (19€ for 2 courses)
"Nice company as well!" ;-)
