Vieux Four

Introduction:
Hello again hope you had a nice Easter and I’m in France to review the Vieux Four

Service:
Well the table setting was good and the napkins were beautifully folded but in the corner of room there was a girl playing on her laptop and the waitresses were friendly so for service it’s going to be a 6/10

Starter:
For starter I had fish pâté with a garnish of salad. The pâté was alright but there was too much jelly and the salad was nice and crispy so overall it’s a 5/10

Main:
My main was steak haché   and the vegetable of the day which was sortié potatoes. The steak haché soft was perfectly done and well seasoned also the potatoes were lovely and crispy on the outside and in the inside. So I give the main 9/10

Dessert:
I had vanilla ice cream and strawberry sorbet. The sorbet was flowing with fruitiness and with the vanilla it makes it yummier. So I give the dessert 8/10

So any way I had a nice time and the overall score is 28 and that’s a premier.Bye!

The Bull and Swan


Happy New Year.  Yesterday I went to a pub/restaurant called the Bull and Swan in Stamford, England. It was a nice old fashioned house and the best bit was the outside archway linking the pub and restaurant.

Service8/10
When I first walked into the restaurant it looked lovely. At the end of the room there was an old log fire place and loads of pictures with beautiful frames around them and the tables were set perfectly and the staff were really helpful. The toilets were really nice with beautiful soaps and tiles.

Main 10/10
Normally I have a starter but yesterday I went strait onto my main. For the main Corse I had a goats cheese and red onion tart with chips (that I ordered separately). The tart was beautiful it’s presentation was magnificent with a balsamic vinegar sauce drizzled on the plate. The goats cheese was lovely and the tart base was really crispy, I adored the chips because they were hand cut and they tasted lovely.

Desert 7/10
For dessert I had white chocolate ice cream the ice cream was good. And the presentation was good with a little bunch of sugared redcurrants.
Over all it was a great restaurant I would recommend it to the highest standard so the final score is 25 but I think it should be luxury because I didn’t have a starter.
