"I came here for my annual visit when I stop on the way to the UK from Portugal (it's just over half way....)I am always happy with Le Chai. Given putative gastronomic standards in France, this place probably wouldn't even get a basic entry in the Michelin guide. But this is a high quality place with a talented chef. You will rub shoulders with locals having a meal - or sitting at the bar for snacks and a drink - or tourists on the the cognac trail. The set menu is uninteresting but the a la carte has some excellent dishes - albeit at €16 a throw for starters and €25 to €30 for mains. I had a superb monkfish dish ('lotte' in French) with endive, celeriac, courgette, tomato and aubergine, fried in butter ( of course). Some really excellent ideas on the plate.And the wine list is superb - and not bad value too - it is particularly good for the Loire valley (e.g. Chinon, Sancerre) but it has £400 per bottle claret if you want that too. The maitre d' resides over everything and generates the banter with the locals and co-ordinates the wines while the young waitresses do all the work but the place is a great experience.I can highly recommend it - in the last 10 years, I have experienced a lot of complacency and laziness in French cuisine but this place bucks the trend."
