"Saturday evening 10/28, dinner at the gourmet restaurant Les Sources de Fontbelle for the 2nd time (5 guests). The first time we were really enchanted by the setting, the service, the aperitif on the terrace and the chef 's proposal. On the other hand, this 2nd experience is very far from what I hoped to be able to experience again. Already from the aperitif we started on a bad basis with a little discriminatory side. This is the only restaurant that punishes you for appetizers because you do not have an aperitif (glass of champagne or cocktails) confirmed by the waiter. All the tables had different appetizers but not our table due to the simple fact that we had a bottle of white wine to start. I learned that you had to like champagne or cocktails to deserve the same service as on the other tables, which is unfortunately not the case for me and my guests followed me, sad for them (I should add which we also had a bottle of red wine afterwards). I find this lamentable for a gourmet restaurant, one Michelin star and for the 8-course menu at €130. For dinner, I was not transported compared to the first time. But this does not deserve criticism because tastes and colors are unique to each person: combination of trout and geranium, lobster and grapefruit (average for me) and cabbage (favorite). For dinner I just regretted that for the pigeon we didn 't ask for cooking and that we didn 't specify that it was very, very spicy. In conclusion, the experience inoculated me for a moment."

"I have been there for several months now and with the intention of continuing this way, I think it is time to give this restaurant the note it deserves. Summary in one sentence: It's the best kebab in Angouleme, by far. Now, why does he deserve this title? It's quite simple, it combines everything we expect from a restaurant (rapid or not) worthy of this name, and it's usually the recipe for success in restoration. At first, and this is the basis, the products offered. It is simply excellent, full of flavors, made with fresh and cooked products with passion. The quality feels, and it's not because we're proposing Low-cost that we have to lessen this aspect. The map is generous, but not so vast that reading it and choosing becomes a limestone. Kebabs, plates, salads, everything is there, with a typical Indian touch of the house. Then the place. In these days, impossible to enjoy the room, which remains simple and warm, but eating there, in a far-away future, will undoubtedly be very pleasant. In addition, the restaurant is perfectly located: 100 metres from the train station, guests can enjoy it, and 500m from the city centre, for all others. I mean, and that's what really makes the difference, owners. They're simply adorable. They are polite, smiling (yes, it is seen under the mask), helpful, courteous, funny and generally welcoming. This really fails many of the competing signs (especially one that starts with i and ends not stanbul), which in general does not make you want to come back. I therefore warmly recommend this establishment which, more importantly, deserves to offer all this at a friend's price (specified payment only, it is to be taken into account to avoid surprise). In short, it's perfect, and I can't wait to go back."
