France is not vegan friendly!

This is what we hear from a lot of bloggers. I beg to differ.

Coming from a community that was at times, out and out aggressively anti-vegan, we have felt like kids in a candy shop. Sure, most restaurants don’t have vegan options, but we are used to that. There are many vegan products in the grocery stores, from amazing produce and artisan cheeses to a fantastic bacon substitute, we have been cooking great meals at home.

However, last night we had one of the most amazing meals ever. A tiny restaurant in Rouen, with one guy – owner, chef, server, sommelier- offers a prix fixe vegan menu. Each course was a feast for eyes, nose and taste, served with a targeted small selection of bio wines.

Thank you Charli et Sezam for a soul healing meal of gentle generosity and kindness on a stormy dark night.
