We love you le Canigou

We did it!!!!

Buy one, get one free

All this week, "tous au restaurant" affiliated restaurants are offering an amazing deal - buy one meal in the restaurant and get another one free. From the 19th Sept to 26 Sept "votre invité est notre invité" at some fab restaurants all over France.
In the Pyrenees Orientales, there are a couple of very interesting restaurants I've been meaning to try for ages ..
The Cooperative in Belesta, has been recently refurbished from a rundown old wine co-op to a high class hotel ( rooms in the old wine vats) with a spectacular restaurant and terrace and an interesing wine cave also.
The Flowers in Argeles sur Mer is another interesting restaurant that I've yet to try out with a tempting menu du terroir.
So, if you've been thinking of inviting that certain someone out for a meal, now's your chance, you've no excuses!
All the details can be found here. What a great idea!

Only in France .....
