Re: This and That (none / 1)

I sent a booking request several days ago, no reply as yet. I'll phone them.

Re: This and That (none / 0)

I don't think their email works too well. The first time it just got lost, but the second time I tried I got a good response .

anyway, I'm there, arriving on thursday. I'm going to be trying a home brew place I've heard about if anyone's interested.

Re: This and That (none / 0)

I had that problem too. Took a second email to get an answer.

Almost forgot, are there any other vegetarians or wishes for food?

Le Cantalou will have something (none / 0)

can people confirm what they won't eat (ie no fish, no eggs, etc...) to make sure that everybody can have something to eat?

Re: Le Cantalou will have something (none / 0)

I'd prefer not to have the more gristly fruits des mer, but I'm not so fussy I'd refuse it if that's all there is.

Re: Le Cantalou will have something (none / 0)

For me it's no meat (including no chicken and fish) if possible no eggs and no goat cheese.

A note about the Cantalou (none / 1)

They've just put up some scaffolding against the building (to repair the damage from last year's fire) - so our table will be in the inside courtyard. It's nice and quiet, but we'll be less visible from the street - you need to get inside the restaurant and go through it to the back. I'll see if a sign can be put up...

Re: A note about the Cantalou (none / 1)

Do we know how many people are coming? Geezer may be bringing the whole family but I don't know yet. Somebody might want to contact him (he's in Paris already, I believe).

Is that wheelchair-accessible?
