Restos - Les Bonnes Souers









Every region, every country have always their own traditions and characteristics. Language, music, weather, people... but the one that I always loved is the gastronomy. Typical food, wine, snacks, beers, deserts... you name it. The key word is "typical"! If it's typical I'm on it! :)
Most of my friends knows that, specially that "thing" that I have about taking pictures of everything I taste! eheheh

So I'll try to write about our experiences around the world (until the day I won't survive some crazy food! eheh)

This week we went to "Les Bonnes Souers", one small french restaurant (like most of them around here) with internacional cuisine. But from a french restaurant I won't expect anything else but typical cuisine (here's the magic key!).

Here is a small summary from our last experience:
Ouefs cocotte - baked (shirred) eggs dipped into cream sauce, onions and boiled in bain-marie (double boiler). Still don't know where it's typical from.
Pavé d'Aubrac - beef from the Aubrac region (Southeast France), which is a special kind of red beef, very tender due to the region's rich flora.
Crumble aux pommes - the typical english apple crumble. (it's not french, but it's typical! eheh)

A good restaurant with a good service. I recommend you to try the shirred eggs and the Aubrac beef.

Feel free to post your comments or corrections, because some of the times I don't know exactly the details neither the equivalents in english.

Bon apetit...
