But Garden Restaurants: Of restaurant guides published in France, that of the Club des Sans-Club (Club of the Clubless) is among the best. Where to Dine in London and Paris (with street maps), by M. L. Bernhardt (The Ram's Head Press, London) is a handy booklet on gourmetry purchasable in overseas bookstores. TWA, in its excellent nearly-free booklet Travel Tips for France, has a dependable list, as long as Buchwald's, of atmospheric restaurants, including not only the famous temples of French epicurean ism, but garden restaurants for alfresco dining, seafood specialists and round-the-world restaurants of Paris for the food of all nations.
Good Restaurants, with Atmosphere Germany now abounds in good restaurants, many with special atmosphere and I may as well get right down to good eating and name some, for I have just spent a month and more sampling them all over the Republic. Occasionally I shall include the restaurants of hotels, for some special reason, but in general this discussion concerns separate restaurants. I shall list them, as I did hotels, alphabetically, by towns.
Augsburg: The Fugger Keller is a delightful cellar restaurant.
Liege, being French-inspired in its cooking, has several restaurants of very interesting character. Le Clou Dore (The Golden Nail), in an old baronial mansion that is almost a museum and with a lovely garden where you may enjoy your coffee-and-loafing, is a place that would warrant a visit to this city if there were nothing else to do or see. Le Pichet (The Pitcher) is a smaller, central restaurant of quality. In neighboring Spa you will find an elegant restaurant called Vieitte France, and in the woods near that resort a rude little auberge called Sauveniere that can serve you a memorable repast, Ardennes style.
Two other Ardennes restaurants for the motorist to look up in the Dinant area are the Thermidor, in that town and L'Auberge de Bouvignes, a Meuse-side inn of great charm, two miles downstream. |
