Honfleur, France
September 22-23, 2004


 
 

We are not fans of “fine dining” but La Tortue made a believer out of us. Dennis & I had a six-course seafood dinner for 16 euros each and my mother ate the vegetarian menu for 12 euros. The restaurant was quiet, yet lively, and the service was a delight. The highlight of the meal was the lobster mousse. It was proof that you don’t need a noisy, smoke filled room to have a great evening. The point was further driven home a week later when we ate at a T.G.I. Friday's in Bethesda, MD and couldn't hear a word over the blaring music.

We stayed at the Hotel du Dauphine, which was conveniently located and had great rooms with flower-filled window boxes. Dennis had fun navigating the narrow cobbled streets in the rental car. The town planners did not have cars in mind when the streets were built.
