One of our favourite towns is St Remy, a scenic drive of less than 60 minutes from home.
The Hotel de Ville set in a pretty square with Plane Trees.
It is an easy town to park in, although Market day,Wednesday can be challenging.
You can meander through the pretty streets where there are some excellent boutiques and speciality food shops.
This one specialises in wine, cheese & Truffles
Exquisite!
The 'Butcher', a rare sight in many UK high streets today.
There are also many specialist Olive and Olive Oil shops which are an abundant feature of the local landscape.
Shabby or Chic?
more chic than shabby!
And of course the choice of restaurants is huge.
We were enticed by this window display of patisseries into a well known restaurant
'L'Aile ou la Cuisse'
And were not disappointed by our choice, with a Goats cheese and Filo pastry salad to start
One of the main courses, mackeral
And in the end I could not choose which dessert to have so elected for the Cafe Gourmand.
Whilst my sister showed less strength succumbing to a mille Feuille!
And after lunch a chance to walk off lunch in the peaceful backstreets.
And admire the many characterful buildings and facades.
Karen and I by one of the many fountains that will be found in the town.
Karen's dream car! And No I still haven't bought one
