This is one of the best, traditional Salon de The I've been to in France for a long time. Not only…read morewas the person serving (I think he was the owner) friendly and welcoming, but he took the time and trouble to make a pot of tea the way the English like it (his words). Cold milk, extra hot water - lovely. The patisserie was a delight too. Hubby had one of the best apple tarts he's ever had (his words) and I had a really delicious strawberry tart that melted on the tongue. I'm salivating just thinking about it. The shop is situated in the pedestrian zone, it's quite small, but you can sit outside and enjoy the charming little street it's on.

After buying cheeses, escargot, charcuterie and baguettes at Eauze's Thursday Farmers Market, we…read morehad to buy some sweets for dessert to complete our picnic. We went into this patisserie and bought some bottled waters and some pastries. We bought eclairs, a braided bread with chocolate, cakes, tarts and a Baba au Rhum. The lady placed everything in a large cake box. My favorites were the chocolate cake and the eclair. We all had a bite of the Baba au rhum, and oh my gosh, that thing was drenched in rum! I felt drunk just having a bite of it. The bakers used little restraint with the rum. Good thing there were 10 adults in our group. That one baba au rhum was enough for all of us! The shop also has a large selection of house made chocolates. Do go into this store if you're in the area and buy a baba au rhum if you've never had it. It is a taste to remember!

It has a small selection of charcuterie and cheeses, so go instead to the Boucherie for your charcuterie needs and get your cheese at their outdoor market if you want more of a selection. This place has a nice wine selection, so all is good! Note that this market is closed between 1-3 pm as are most places in SW France. So shop early if you need to get stuff for lunch!

Everything was closed on Sunday evening but we stumbled across this tea shoppe and their Sunday…read morespecial: couscous. It was not something we would have tried necessarily but we were very impressed. The owner brewed us a pot of mint tea and served our family of five a delicious, family-style dinner of salad, couscous with meatballs, roasted chicken, and stewed vegetables. The owner was most kind and attentive. We dined outside on the patio on a lovely October night and enjoyed one of the best meals of our trip. Everything was great and we cannot recommend this place enough.
