Cruising Champagne

The forecast over the last couple of days has suggested rain, however the weather has been good for our recent guests Rob and Boudewijn, and the sun is out ready for the next part of their little adventure.

Rob came and stayed with us earlier in the year with his wife, and decided to suggest returning with his friend for a boys few days away cruising around the Champagne region in his gorgeous Porsche. It was lovely listening to their tales last night over dinner.

We enjoyed gougères with a glass or two of Champagne, then tarragon chicken, green beans, and pommes purée., followed by some deliciously ripe local cheese. We ended the meal with a homemade nectarine and frangipane tart, served with homemade vanilla ice cream.
