26 September 2021 Chateau de la Bourdaisiere Dinner

 


Our dinner was tomato themed as one would expect from the French National Tomato Conservatory.  We took the fancy elevator to the first floor and walked outside to the dining area.  It was in an old horse barn.  There were canned tomatoes everywhere,  Leslie and Laura ordered tomato juice.  It was not V8, it was more like V2.  Salt, pepper and celery salt were required add on ingredients.  We had a fish terrine for starters and stuffed tomatoes for the main.  The desert was a chocolate cake with out any tomatoes!
