Pot Luck!

Sunshine and at last a moment to get away from the village. Some shopping over the border to replenish supplies and the opportunity to try out a restaurant that I'd heard about. One of the cheap and cheerful kind. This is it from the outside but I don't know why the chair is there .... perhaps for a smoker or perhaps to stop parking in front of the enterance. The restaurant can seat about 50 people, there's lots of artwork on the walls and to go to the loo you have to cross the kitchen. It's run by a woman of a "certain age" as Andy would say who does good home cooking. Choice of hot starter was spaghetti or tortilla except you seemed to get what ever was ready at the time! Three courses, salad, pot of coffee, wine, water, bread and brandy came to the princely sum of 9€ each. A fun kind of place to take friends who can go with the flow. In the evening we made the most of our day and went for a glass of wine at the bar where we sat out enjoying the last of the sun. Once again the Mayor and his family came along so the one glass became two or even three.
