Mark Warren chose this excellent eatery, located just after a right hand hairpin halfway up the road to the Col de La Faucille.
In all 17 members turned up Mark2rs, Mark2ts, Ken, David, Norman, Mervyn, MikeH and MikeC, Wouter, Gerry, Stephen, Brian, Bryan, Alan, Trevor, PeterD and PeterT. The weather was just perfect, especially for four members who biked up and back. Views from this restaurant are spectacular in such weather.
The fixed price menu (Eu 42) dish of the day was Pierrade or Fondu, and 16 chose Pierrade, so 17 ate it. A good salad, with an apero provided, 5 hot stones and plenty of meat for us “vegans”and meat-eaters to tuck into, supplemented by sauces, chips and cheesy potatoes. The red wine washed it down well and the desserts were scrumptious too, followed by coffee. We had a chance to move chairs and mingle a bit. It was a most convivial affair or the first of the season for GINClub. There was also a surfeit of meat from which Kobie benefitted..
Thanks again to Mark2rs for a great lunch, 12 noon to 2.30 pm.
