Arromanches
has a good selection of restaurants and bars with a range of prices and
styles, and a short drive opens up even more possibilities at Bayeux, Courseulles,
or Port en Bessin.
The fish is generally very good so close to the coast, and the Oysters
and "Fruits de la Mer" are brilliant .We are lucky to have 2 very
good oyster farms in Asnelles, just half a mile over the hill. Wonderful
cultivated oysters, exotic flat Roman oysters, and enormous wild
"Sauvage" oysters compete with spider crabs and flotillas of live
lobsters cruising round the holding tanks en route to your plate.
A glass of chilled Sancerre, a squeeze of Lemon and a little vinegar
laced with red onion……Mmmmm.
Anything you see that you fancy, don't hesitate to bring it back
here to picnic in the courtyard, or in the house. We can always
help you prepare BBQ,s and you are welcome to make use of our kitchens
whenever you fancy.
Must tries are :
- Calvados
-The local fire water, an apple brandy that is best sipped, and
even better if has been maturing for about 10 years.
- Pommeau
- A sherry like mix of calvados and cider, best taken with a couple
of ice cubes end sipped slowly.
- Local
cider - Best drunk.
Finally, see
if you can find the Arromanches restaurant serving Camembert
flavour ice cream. Not as strange as it sounds, its like the nicest
cheese cake you ever tasted, and its ice cream.
