La Pause Gourmande sur Sainte-Mere-Eglise

06/04/2024: On vacation in the region. Succulent homemade meal. Friendly welcome. A repeat without hesitation

14/03/2024: We arrive with a friend for dinner on a Thursday in March at 7:00 p.m. No one yet in the dining room. Small fire in the fireplace. The daily menu displayed is very tempting at €31. We choose it before even seeing the card! Within fifteen minutes two or three couples of regulars and another of Americans arrived. Top service: simple, friendly, smiling. The warm and unpretentious place: pleasant where you feel good. Above all... Remarkable cuisine (a parsnip velouté with hazelnuts, a perfect pork tenderloin and an exceptional vegetable julienne, a Calvados ice parfait with meringues). When it was time to pay, I was ecstatic about the value for money... and the neighbor turned around and said to me: the cook worked for a Michelin-starred restaurant and his thing is desserts: you should have taken the Paris Brest! Never mind ! We're sharing one with my friend: if you follow my advice... reply to me here to tell me what you think! Addition for two: 2 x €31 + €7 for two Paris Brest cabbages, for the Parisian that I am, this is unheard of! A really pleasant moment! (So… my friend and I who were doing reconnaissance in the area for an association decided to organize a lunch here for 45 people that we had initially planned elsewhere)
