Le Parc - Duclair

After the annual summer break the park has just opened again, and what fun! with always delicious menus we have just added cocktails without alcohol (there are, of course always with.) and the kitchen is superb with always inventive and interesting jugglers sometimes unexpected and never fades. Bravo!

What a pleasure to find this delicious restaurant – the view through the park is always as splendid, the service always exemplary with unwavering attention to the smallest details and the inventive, creative and, of course, perfectly cared for. visiblely, the long health break was used to carry out work, quite successful. Bravo!

Even though we didn't have a reservation we were received warmly at this lovely restaurant overlooking the Seine. Our server was very accommodating of our limited French and explained all the menu items. We both had the three course special...excellent value and delicious food...even a farewell treat from the chef! Relaxed dining with lovely food.

A little gem recommended by our hostess at the Duck House in Saint Wandrille, run by the young couple Evy and Arnaud Genty who put care and attention to a menu built around local producers and prepared with love. We choose the menu Escapade at 31 Euros and Escale at 19.70 Euros, very reasonable compared to British prices. We had dinner in mid-week and profited of a quiet time when we could enjoy a prime view over the river Seine that run at the bottom of the property. It was a relaying and enjoyable evening.

This restaurant was not our first choice but because it was Mother's Day here in France many of our first choices were already booked. My husband found this restaurant and we had Mother's Day Lunch there along with my son. It is a nice restaurant but a tiny bit rough around the edges. Overall we enjoyed our meal. I had the cocotte for my starter but my egg was hard boiled but it was still tasty as it had bits of foie gras in it. My main dish was lamb and that was pretty good. My husband had the faux filet in a sauce and I prefered his dish. The side was a melange of vegetables and I thought that they were a bit bland. A few things that we noticed: When we were walking up from the bottom there is an area under the trees that is a big mess and it looks like people just throw things there. Chairs, etc. The room that we were in had one table with white plastic garden chairs. I understand that it was Mother's Day and they probably had to add extra tables but for the price that you pay for your meal I think that they could do better. We waited quite a while for the wine menu, we were almost done with our starter by the time we got the menu. We didn't realize that the waitress had served us the wrong wine until after we were drinking it but that was really no big deal. Like I said overall we enjoyed our meal and I would definitely try this restaurant again!
