A chainsaw in Landres's case.

I really like that part of France. Nice people and great food, of course.

I haven't been there since the early 1980's (on business several times) but it is a very nice area and I whole heartedly agree about the food! It does rain there a lot though!

I have been to Landres twice now, and the only good food I recall was in an Italian restaurant.
I also recall sitting there for 45 minutes after eating, money literally in hand, and being ignored by the waiter.

Biggest problem is getting anything to drink (non alcoholic). Water with meals seems to be a foreign concept, and if you order a pop you get a tiny (100 ml ?) bottle.

You can do much better if you just go to the grocery store and get stuff to eat.

I will likely go again, but food is not one of the things I will look forward to.
