Ian tries a whopper. We ate a great lunch at L'Estrade in St Saturnin and Ian was waxing lyrical.

 

Birthday happiness, L'Estrade, St. Sat.

 For her birthday I took Janie to her favorite restaurant, L'estrade in St. Saturnin, where she had her favorite lunch, crayfish salad with grapefruit. The salad you see is mine, sans grapefruit, due to complications with medications.

With fresh anchovies!

Lunch at L'Estrade

 These two salades, The chevre chaud above and the crayfish grapefruit below are perfect on a hot day. The grapefruit interferes with my heart medication so Anne-Laurence, the chef has said she would make it without the grapefruit.....next week!

Restaurant L'Estrade, St. Saturnin

This is the exterior of L'Estrade for anyone who goes to St. Saturnin. Most highly recommended.

Last lunch at L'Estrade

On our last day, we had to go to L'Estrade for lunch. Janie had the lasagna with spinach and salmon and I had the salad with packets of goat cheese, warm and comforting, on top. The girls who run the joint consented to a picture with us. We miss them....and the food!

Bad picture, great salad, L'Estrade, St. Saturnin

Here is my forbidden fruit. Anne-Laurance, the chef at L'Estrade, makes a great grapefruit and crayfish salade. I take two heart meds that are neutralized by grapefruit. I love grapefruit and I love crayfish, sigh.
Janie loves this meal.

Fresh sardine salad and pork chop, L'Estrade

 The sardines are very different fresh, as opposed to canned. These were very tasty and the rest of the salad was a wonderful accompaniment. The pork chop was perfect.

 A big smile and the reason why. The spinach lasagna is light and wonderful.
