Delicious fresh sushi, sashimi, cabbage salad with a tasty twist, real miso soup. Service is…read morefriendly and down to earth. No frills, just good food, simple decor - Japanese prints around the wall-mounted television. It's on the road to Vendôme, just 200m from the top of the old town, and there's a fair amount of passing traffic. Price-wise it's good value with menus starting at around €13 for chicken karage. Platters (ie without rice, salad and soup) start at €12 for salmon sushi and salmon maki. The maki with tempura prawns and spicy sauce (€7 for 6 pieces) is really delicious. This restaurant has none of the problems that I've encountered in the other sushi restaurants in Blois - for example the fish and rice are the right temperature and the miso soup is real miso. In fact, this is some of the best sushi I've found in France, and I've heard tell that people drive 40km from Romorantin to fetch take away. True story!

The rice and beans were on the side which I then learned you were to de head the shrimp and then mix in the rice and beans. Really really impressed. My wife had a smoked cajun chicken dish that was also outstanding. I was looking for something different on our vacation and this fit the bill. Good price, great food, great friendly service. Took a bit of effort for us to hike to but well worth it.

Excellent dinner at La Boulaye. Fresh, local everything.

Make reservations, you can't go wrong, highly highly recommended. And they were kind enough to give us an English menu :)

We enjoyed the local rose and chinon wines with elegantly presented dishes prepared perfectly. My wife enjoyed the cod and I the duck. The appetizers, I chose the restaurant's specialty pork dish, started the meal off on the right foot! Local cheese and fruit dessert topped off a relaxing evening. Idylic. How this was possible for less than 100 euro is a mystery!
