Tiny little wine bar & restaurant on a small street near the harbor but definitely off the main…read moretourist paths. The wine was fine, and there's of course cidre available as well. Food options were mainly written on small chalkboards around the restaurant and you'll find cheese & charcuterie, traditional things like galettes, and various other items - similar to a brasserie there were items like lasagna on the menu and it was house made & quite good. There were a couple small tables on the sidewalk and then seating for probably 20 inside. Service was very friendly, though we arrived early so it was just the [presumed] owner and it probably helped that my wife speaks French pretty well. Shortly thereafter a server arrived who spoke English so I wouldn't hesitate to check out this wine bar even if your French isn't perfect. It's definitely a local place, but that's why you travel is to find great little places like this.

It's location near the pedestrian mall area make it easily accessible and apparently very popular. They serve many different kinds of Leffe Beer and have a full bar and food as well. Even though I think this is a franchise, it has a warm cozy feeling and I felt very comfortable here. I had a peche Kir Royal and several Leffe Beers with my friend as well as a fabulous traditional charcuterie platter. The service was very attentive and friendly. If I lived here I think I would hang out here a lot. I am sure I will be back when I am in town again.

For our second night in the coastal village of Honfleur we decided to have dinner off the boat…read morebasin, giving up the idyllic ambience, but hoping for a better meal because the kitchens would have to try harder to attract patrons since they don't have the view to draw people in. We picked well with L'Estuaire. Three women were taking care of everyone in the front of the house. One seemed to be the owner and the other two, dressed in black pants or skirt with white blouses and black sweaters, were the height of efficiency. Not that they didn't get a bit confused in bringing us and others dessert before the cheese course that was expected, but I marvel at how French restaurants don't rely on busboys and food runners. Everyone does everything with way fewer people and if you need something from someone, you just ask anyone. August may not be a month with R but I knew I had to have moules (mussels) on this trip to France. Not surprisingly, they're a regional specialty along the Normandy coast where you can get versions made with brut cider, cheese sauce, and cream. Brian had had the cider version the day before so I went for the Moules Normande, made with cream. By that description alone, what's not to like? Fresh mussels cooked with cream, onions, and herbs: shut yo' mouth! In his usual attempt to eat healthfully Brian had the salmon toasts and for our mains we went with red meat this night accompanied by a really nice bordeaux from St. Emilion. Rounding out my list of trying the French classics while here I had steak au poivre and Brian had grilled lamb rib chops. Never mind that seafood is the thing in these parts! Both were cooked as ordered: medium to medium rare and it helped that the waitress was able to explain to us that it would be "entre rouge a rose." And the frites! The French just really know what to do with a freakin' potato! Something so ordinary at home is once again sublime here in La France! Very young cheese being the thing in this region we specifically chose a restaurant with a cheese course as part of the set menu. Really, one serving of cheese would have done for us both and we could have shared a dessert but of course we both had cheese plus our own desserts. Livarot cheese was the discovery this night, which had a markedly distinctive tang compared to the very smooth Camembert and the in-between Pont L'Eveque. Brian had a delicious Livarot crepe the next day that really outshone my Pont L'Eveque version. Dessert more than held its own as usual. I had to have the apple tart in this region also known for its apples. It was delicious and seemed to have layer of apple sauce on the bottom, something I've seen in recipes for French apple tart. I was a bit surprised that there was bit of a scorch on some of the apples but then I saw a recipe with a picture and sure enough that seems to be an expected feature of the tart. Brian's chocolate fondant in a pool of creme anglaise was also impeccably delicious, needless to say.

But on the advice of a friend, I pushed the door. Even if Antigone II Gonatas said: "Keep me from my friends, my enemies, I take care of it", sometimes you have to listen to your friends. The interior is not particularly exciting. But as there is the view of the port, as much put on the edge of the window (or on the terrace when the weather is good). Obviously we take much less advantage of the harbor view at night in winter! Let's have a look at the menu since we came here to eat. The choice will obviously be on local products, we did not come to Trouville to eat a sauerkraut! The mackerel fillets are a nice presentation, excellent, even if the vinegary background was a bit powerful. The whipped cream with the pommé of Auge was a little lost. At the beginning of the day, an elegant velvety scallops and truffle oil. But our chef seems to have forgotten the basics of presentation of whole fish: always head to the left. But as the cooking is perfect, the excellent taste (a little normal, we are at the edge of the sea!), everything is fine. A little bit of presentation work for the salmon and sea bream tartare, with some pomegranate seeds. Small weakness for caramel cabbage which, if it tastes good, if it is well worked with a cracker, is too soft in the dough. Made in advance and kept refrigerated, it has therefore captured moisture and is soft under the tooth. Pity. The beautiful feature of Pavillon Augustine is to offer a wine cellar quite exceptional for the place. In addition to the base list, already quite well stocked, it has several great vintage wines that would not expect in this kind of establishment. The cherry on the cake, the boss of the restaurant, Arnaud, is very cool while being professional. He embellishes his menu with little hints of humor. He knows how to respond respectfully and with teasing to the comments of bad coaters on TripAdvisor. Check of 150,80 euros for two.
