Les Coquelicots, Landerrouat

I think that I've mentioned this before, but an old bar in a near-by village, Landerrouat, has had a make-over.  New owners took over 6 months ago, and have created a bar/café, an épicerie, and a crêperie.  These are all linked, although if you go into the épicerie entrance in the middle, you will be hemmed in by the shelving.  That section has some basic supplies - useful if you need something urgently say at lunchtime when the supermarket in Pellegrue is closed.

The café has a weekday set lunch menu for €11.50.  I went there yesterday, and had vegetable soup, tomato tart (which was delicious!), lamb steak with garlic served with kidney beans, cheese and a creme caramel.  Oh yes, the price also included a demi picher of red wine (50cl) and a coffee at the end.

The Crêperie as a wide menu of savoury and sweet pancakes.  This is open up to 10pm - it may be good for desert after a bbq at the house!

The food from the café was good, honest stuff, and well worth a visit if you are happy to take the risk on the set menu.  Of course that risk is off-set by using the Crêperie menu!
