La Coquele sur Chapaize

05/10/2023: Unfortunately the restaurant is closing.

16/08/2023: We waited standing between the tables so that we could be seated on the terrace while average reception waiters came and went. We are immediately presented with the wine list without giving the menu. My choice of wine depends on what I'm going to eat... or we opt for a white wine. The waitress arrives and desperately tries to open the bottle for a good 2 minutes because the cork has broken, she ends up going to get her colleague who takes over and painfully takes out small pieces of cork before giving up and taking the bottle away, reproaching to the winemaker that there are only problems with his bottles. New bottle arrives and new attempt with new breaking of the cork and new fiddling to finally extract the other half of the cork. My very, very finely cut beef carpaccio arrived lukewarm on a warm plate (it was very hot that evening but the beef clearly didn't come out of the fridge). The toppings and original seasoning the carpaccio not yet altered by the lukewarmness but the lack of freshness bothered me. Eating lukewarm carpaccio is not pleasant in the mouth. The dishes were quite nice and good. Fair prices. Rather good evening in the atmosphere but could do better
