Discovered a gem of a restaurant

Happy New Year to all, and we wish everyone health and happiness in the years to come. We went on a drive to the North and found a 'Plus Belle Village' as listed in the Micheline Guide called 'Les Plus Beaux Détours de France'. But better yet, in the old village square, we happened upon a tiny restaurant called 'Les Sommeliers'. We had a 2 course meal that rivalled anything we have ever had, for $16.00. The service was spectacular, the local wine superb, the ambiance warm and friendly... even the 'loo' was decorated with warmth and flare! Loved it. I had a starter (smoked salmon, creme frais on blinis, which I shared with Peter) and a main (baby deer slow cooked in wine). Peter had a main (three types of fish in a cream/wine sauce, and a dessert of roasted chestnut cream cake roll which he shared with me). Love being in France!!!
