Restaurant L'Imprimerie

Fontenoy-la-Joute is a secondhand book village. Nothing like as big as Hay-on-Wye and with many fewer small shops which are mainly open at weekends in summer. Unsurprisingly, there are not many English books for sale but plenty of bande dessinée/cartoon/comic books, e.g. Tintin, Asterix, etc. The restaurant is in the centre of the village (use the address rather than the name; our GPS took us outside the village! L'Imprimerie is a relatively new restaurant run by two young chefs serving French food in a modern style.

We went out of our way to eat lunch at this wonderful place because of its great reviews and we were not disappointed. It is in an unremarkable village but every single thing about the restaurant was excellent. Parking was no problem, the decoration of the interior was very well done, the service was professional and friendly. The toilets were scrupulously clean and had individual cotton hand towels (nice touch! The food was glorious. The entree was marinated raw meat with artichoke, main was mushroom, pureed pumpkin and fish each delicious and in combination, and the dessert was vanilla ice cream with croutons of chocolate cake and chestnut paste (we think that’s what it was we’re not exact...

A small Quaint Restaurant, run by a young brave couple. I would rather not disclose the unique concept, I can only say the Husband cooks, and cooks very well, and the wife does the service, Friendly and Professional with a smile. The restaurant is situated in a village which is known for it book worms, who we were told came there to search, buy and sell but only secondhand books??? We had an excellent three course meal, with amuse Bouche thrown in, and we enjoyed it, the selection of accompanying wines is excellent. On the whole a surprisingly a very very nice and pleasant dinner.

We chose this restaurant, based on the trip advisor reviews as we were visiting Baccarat. We we not disappointed! We chose the surprise menu and were very pleasantly surprised . The restaurant was fully booked and some potential customers were turned away. The staff were very helpful and attentive. The food was outstanding, the matched wines complimented the dishes, and the price was excellent value. We were also treated to an extra course gratis with an extra glass of wine. All in all a great experience. Would certainly recommend this restaurant. But make sure you book.

On our way to visit the Alsace region, we stopped for lunch in this restaurant located in a small village 10 minutes away from Baccarat. A couple opened the restaurant some years ago and attend you very kindly. We took a full menu for 13€ and enjoyed a delicious risotto as a starter. We had a great lunch in this restaurant with a decoration on books and printing. A hidden gem not too far from famous Baccarat !
