La Recreation Gourmande sur Villegenon

"On leaving school, we met..." It could begin like this. And indeed, if you listen closely, you can still hear the children's laughter, the squeak of chalk on the blackboard, the sharp click of the wooden ruler, and even smell the acrid scent of blue ink that stained our fingers. And then comes recess. This time, it's a feast. The children's laughter has given way to the whispers of the customers, the sweet aroma of porcini mushroom sauce has replaced that of ink, a seafood terrine with scallops precedes a filet mignon in pastry crust, surrounded by red cabbage, which gently fades into a fruit baba. What more can be said? Shh... Let's not spread the word!

A unique place with truly excellent menus. The quantity and flavors are definitely there. And the staff is very friendly and easygoing. I highly recommend this place! 👍👍👍

Unique place 🤩 Excellent food and charming, helpful staff

Excellent meal, refined and prepared with high-quality ingredients. The setting is unique: as the restaurant is in the old school, it uses vintage school furniture and posters.

A fantastic lunch today, just the way we like it! On the menu: an excellent homemade terrine, a tenderloin wrapped in shredded potatoes that was equally delicious, and to finish, profiteroles of the same high quality as everything else! Not to mention the black pudding meatball and the head cheese toast with our aperitif. The owner, his wife, and the waitress were all incredibly friendly in this setting reminiscent of a former school classroom! And all this for 17 euros! Definitely not to be missed!

Another superb dinner for two at this establishment. The food was very tasty and generous, the service very pleasant, in this former school. A place to recommend, as it's rare these days.

My partner and I were looking for a quiet yet authentic place to have a peaceful lunch, and we found it in this little village. It was a wonderful surprise, in an old village elementary school converted into a restaurant. The decor is simple yet elegant, with simple details that show how much care this place has put into it, like the fresh flowers at every table. The food is affordable, the portions are still generous, and the meal includes an entrée, main course, cheeses, and dessert for €20! The service is friendly and attentive, and the desserts, personally, stole my heart. I'm speechless. Highly recommended!

Excellent lunch. Quick service, friendly waitresses. The restaurant is located in the former village school of Villegenon. The classroom has been transformed into a dining room with school-style decor, including blackboards, posters, and a cast-iron stove. There's parking with a reserved space for people with reduced mobility. A small outdoor terrace features a unique fountain, but we couldn't try it because of the 35°C heat. Highly recommended.
