Restaurant Jacky Dallais, Le Petit Pressigny - at the end of a long road
Today we went out for a splendid Sunday lunch at Jacky Dallais' La Promenade in Le Petit Pressigny. It is always excellent and each time we wonder why we don't go more often because it also such stunning value for the quality. Being over 50 kilometres away is a large part of the answer. Why La Promenade isn't more than a one-star Michelin is beyond me. It is, however, just as well because the service is discreet and efficient even during a busy Sunday lunch and Jacky Dallais stays in his kitchen producing his magic rather than playing the celebrity chef and touring the tables. I will be writing more about La Promenade, our lunch and the wines for my Tuesday piece this week on Les 5 du Vin.

After lunch I took a few photos around the village of Le Petit Pressigny and then we headed off for a quick look at Le Petit's grown-up brother Le Grand Pressigny and its museum of pre-history.
