Eating Out
For
the uninitiated and budget conscious, look out for signs to
an Auberge (country Inn) they often offer better value, a
superior cuisine and a friendlier service compared to that
fancy restaurant which catches your eye. Appearances can certainly
be deceptive when choosing where to eat in rural France; if
you venture through the rather shabby door of a restaurant
in a small town you may be pleasantly surprised at the warmth
of the welcome and the high quality of the inexpensive menus
on offer. What is more you certainly will not leave the table
still hungry, the portions will be more than ample with the
greatest challenge being how to still have room for pudding.
Before you decide to grab lunch in a fast food restaurant,
convenient though it is, compare the price of your pizza or
omelet and chips with the menu of five courses (usually with
a carafe of wine included) in that small restaurant with the
rather unprepossessing exterior.

FIRES, COUNTRY WALKS, GREAT FOOD! WHY NOT RELAX IN THE MAGICAL

The
Brive-Souillac
Airport
read
what
I
have
discovered
so
far
about
this
anticipated
airport:
Updated
11.01.2009
Living
in
the
Dordogne
The
TGV
(which
isn’t
really
a
TGV
??)
between
Lille
and
Brive-la-Gaillarde
came
into
service
9th
December
2007.
Notably
this
train
service
connects
to
Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle
airport
and
Eurostar
at
Lille
without
changing
stations.
What
bliss,
no
more
frantic
journeys
across
Paris
between
Gare
d’Austerlitz
and
the
Gare
du
Nord
to
connect
to
Eurostar.

Living
in
the
Dordogne
Believe
it
or
not
we
have
low
cost
public
transport
in
rural
France.
Here
in
the
Dordogne
a
terrific
trans-urban
bus
service
is
available
to
us.
Launched
in
September
2006,
TransPérigord
established
10
regular
bus
routes
traversing
the
Dordogne
at
a
fixed
fare
of
2
euros
a
journey.
The
fare
can
be
even
cheaper
than
that:
10
journeys
cost
14
euros
and
a
monthly
season
ticket
costs
40
euros.
During
the
year
2006-2007
this
service
was
used
by
60000
travelers.
This
bus
service,
used
together
with
a
complementary
service
known
as
TAD,
(transport
à
la
demande),
means
that
we
can
now
travel
from
our
doorsteps
(well
we
may
have
to
totter
down
the
path)
to
all
points
of
the
Dordogne.
With
advance
notice,
the
Commune
transport
service
will
transport
you
to,
and
collect
you
from,
the
nearest
connection
for
the
TransPérigord
service,
also
at
a
fixed
fare
of
2
euros.
If
you
fancy
a
day
trip
to
Paris
the
service
links
to
the
TGV
Paris/
Angouleme.

National
holidays
in
France
Here
is
the
calendar
showing
2009
national
holidays
(jours
fériés).
These
can
often
offer
a
long
week-end
or
what
is
called
‘un
pont’;
a
bridge
to
the
weekend;
i.e.
Thursday
21
May
will
be
taken
by
some
firms
as
a
national
holiday
on
Thursday
and
Friday
22
May
as
a
bridge
day
of
holiday
to
the
weekend.
Worth
noting
that
on
jours
fériés
(as
on
Sundays)
you
will
have
to
order
your
own
wine
since
the
usual
complementary
carafe
of
wine
offered
in
most
restaurants
will
not
be
included
in
the
price
of
the
meal.
