Started of hubbys birthday by going for a lovely walk. It was glorious sunshine with clear blue sky, a very pleasing sight after all the very depressing rain we have had... Although there wasn't much wildlife, we could hear the birds singing away.. It is lovely seeing the buds sprouting on the trees, a sure sign that Spring is around the corner...you can almost smell it..
After a quick cuppa, and a shower, we set of to the beautiful town of La Rochefoucauld, there stands proud, the beautiful Château of Rochefoucauld.. The restaurant we decided to eat for the birthday lunch was right at the side..a restaurant called Restaurant du Château...appropriately named :-)
We had had the Menu du Jour as it sounded delicious and looked very tasty too.. Menu du Jour was only €13.70 , for 3 courses. Amazing value, especially as the quality and quantity was excellent. Fresh local produce....vraiment délicieux..

Joyeux anniversaire mon mari...
So glad your husband had a terrific birthday. My birthday is next week. I wish I could eat at a restaurant next to a castle. Some day!
