Conveniant Parking (at the right times) |
After meeting in the Alps, Eric Lepine and Kiean Glynn
independently moved to England and by chance bumped into each other once more. “Would
you like to open a French restaurant?” one said to the other. Le Beaujolais in Cirencester
was the answer. With French chef Eric, the authenticity of the project is hemmed
into the charming locale. The experiences of Kiean in the Alps and his
first-hand knowledge of both English and French culture enables the boys to
work cohesively so everything is French and yet plausible to the English.
It is a restaurant that can accommodate most budgets. The
lunch time array of crepes (12:00-14:30) are reasonably priced and the venue
can be enjoyed as a café at this stage, however during lunch if you want
something more substantial one might take a two course menu for only £11.50 per
person.

When dinner time comes (18:00 to late) the menu is
diversified more, with traditional dishes available, such as “Raclette”, a
special cheese popular with Swiss farmers that is cut into a half wheel, put on
a rack and heated until it becomes gooey like fondue, at this point the surface
layer of cheese is cut and directed onto a plate where the lucky recipient then
uses as a dip for new potatoes or bread. At £17.95 per person, with a minimum
of 2 guests per serving, it is something perfect for a couple travelling the world
through their mouths, or a business hospitality meeting. If you baulk at that,
fondue itself is available for £14.95 per person.
Children, vegetarians and people with allergies are taken
into account, with salads and goats cheese ratatouille available meat, wheat,
dairy and gluten free.

Desserts are wide ranging and delicious. Tarte Au Citron,
sauce framboise (lemon tart and raspberry sauce) is one example along with Crème
Brulee a la Vanille. A cake and a reasonably priced coffee can sharpen you up
for the road at the end of a perfect night in a place easily accessible in the
centre of town.
On top of the wonderful venue, outside catering is also available upon request.
