"This little restaurant located on the main street of the small village of Langon in Brittany, France is a favorite of local workers because its value for price is exceptional. Open for lunch daily, 10.80 Euros purchases a four course meal, which includes a generous salad bar including charcuterie (cold cuts) and crudites (veggies). The main course changes daily, and you get what they serve, or for a small supplement, you can choose a steak and fries. A cheese course with several varieties is followed by dessert, usually including three or four choices. You also get the incredible personality of the young patronne, Alexandra, her bright red hair, and her raucous but infectious laugh. Her husband, who stays in the background and lets her shine, is the chef. The restaurant is also open for dinner on Friday and Saturday nights for a slightly higher price. It is worth the trip just to watch Alexandra in action and the food is satisfying and filling. If you come, don 't be surprised to be surrounded by manual laborers in their overalls, and be prepared for a tight squeeze but a wonderful meal. You might even get Alexandra to use her limited English. When we asked her in English what time they open, she said ten o 'clock but then told us in French that they opened at 9:30 a.m. but she didn 't know how to say that in English! Delightful!"
