Yamato Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 Regarding my post about my lunch at Chartier - I wish to advise you that you can pass this restaurant as the food is not that great though its inexpensive so no need to waste your time with this as you may have to queue for a long time like this (I passed by last night) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yamato Posted August 24, 2022 Author Share Posted August 24, 2022 Lunch was at a restaurant close to the hotel and its really good I must say - Bistrot Rougemont Fantastic escargot - staff told me only serve escargot for dinner but I insisted so he obliged Beef was also very good But why the French don't make good French fries? Fries looked rather sad no? 😂 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
