An Explanation of My Ranking System

Let me explain how the ranking system works. There are these 5 ranks, discount, standard, premier, premium and luxury. Luxury is the best and discount is the worst if you have 35-40 points it is luxury, if it is 30-34 it is premium, if it is 25-29 it is premiere, and standard is 20-24 and discount which are the bad restaurants if they are under 20 points. 

So you now know how this scoring system works so you’ll be able to know how good the restaurants are.

Auberge De Cartassac

aubergecartassac.com/

Ranking: 36.5/40 - Luxury
When I first entered it looked like a normal standard restaurant but when I saw the dining room it changed completely. The dining tables were set really neatly and there were nice paintings on the wall. We saw some of the people already dining and I thought that the presentation was brilliant so I couldn’t wait to get tucked in to my dinner.

The starter: 9.5
As I was saying the presentation was lovely. The Fois Gras was lovely. It had nice flavouring in it, The toast was perfectly toasted and it felt like Paradise, the lettuce the was beautifully presented and I loved the dressing that went with it. Overall the starter was surprising.
I loved my meal at Auberge De Cartassac

The main: 9
My next course was duck with sauteéd potatoes and the duck was really tender and the sauce that it came with was to die for. The sauteed potatoes were very nice and crunchy and the seasoning was very nice with salt and chives.

The desert: 10
For my dessert I had the best ice cream I had tried in years there was two flavours coffee and caramel. The caramel was so enjoyable it was really covered in flavour it was so nice and the coffee was just the same with really good coffee beans in it and the presentation was perfect.

The service: 8
The service was quite fast between courses and we got loads of refills of bread and water and that was quite nice of them. The tables were set nicely. BUT why it lost two marks is because the toilet wasn’t so good, the tap splashed everywhere and there wasn’t that much space in the toilet.

GUESS WHAT! all this fancy food was in the menu enfant and I thought it was great.
