After a long pause we visited our favourite restaurant in the Alsace.
We’ve known the brother and sister owners over 25 years and after a two year absence we were joined by friends for a short trip over the border for lunch.
I started with warm goat cheese and greens.
Next came guinea fowl.
My wife chose pike-perch filet.
While our vegetarian friend ordered a vegetable platter.
And there was one beef filet order medium rare.
Dessert was an ice cream soufflé Grand Marnier.
My wife chose Alsatian ice cream cake.
This was today’s timekeeper.

Now that's a real treat! I am hungry now :)
Some things have been terribly missed during the pandemic, that's for sure.
Gotta love Alsace
They sure know how to create a memorable dining experience! Thanks for sharing - right on time as it is just time to prepare dinner here...
Great food, great company and a great watch... what could be better on a lovely sunny day
Absolutely super venue and menu. Do you have one of my favorite watches on.
All the best for the weekend my friend. Tony
The First Fusion Cuisine?
With the history of this region it really has an interesting blend of cuisines. By chance I have been looking at Alsatian recipes over the last few days for summery dishes. Your lunch looks terrific.
Good observation. Smoked meats, sauerkraut and cakes like gugelhupf are found on both sides of the border.
