Restaurant Le 8, St Foy La Grande

We are currently spending a few days in France, and on our first evening, we decided to go out for a meal.  We tried Gensaké, but they were closed for their annual holidays, so instead decided to go to Le 8 in Ste Foy.

Le 8 describes itself as "semi-gastronomique", a description which puzzles me a bit!  Anyway, we both tried the "Menu Descouverts" for €19.  This turned out to be a four course meal with quite a good choice of dishes.  It included magret as a main, which, on the a la carte menu, was €19 on its own!  The quality and presentation of the food was first class, particularly given the price.

One couple near us went for the Côte de Beuf menu, which was €54 a head - expensive, but... the size of the platter containing a large chunk of been and a load of fried potatoes was enormous!

This is a really good restaurant, tucked away in the back streets of Ste Foy, with remarkably good value food.  Highly recommended!
