You've Got a Friend Part 3

Denise Seidler runs a French conversation class most evenings in Birmingham in which Barbara participated before the move to France.  Denise paid us a visit in Amboise to make sure we were properly installed in our new surroundings and assist us with some of the nuances of life en France.

Since Denise is a true lover of French cuisine, off we went to Chateau de Pray for a gastronomique adventure.

Perhaps you can make out in the photo above that this establishment was founded in 1244 and yet we were able to enjoy its elegant surroundings almost 900 years later.

And now to display for you the luscious dishes of which we partook which were mostly lobster and various seafood preparations:

Amuse bouche

Entrée (which in French is appetizer)

Les Plats (main dishes)

Fromage (Cheese Course - observe the variety)

Dessert (pomme tart)

We certainly feasted and enjoyed the surroundings après le repas.
