After visiting le Clos Luce we could park easily in the road parking along the river and walked a bit into the pedestrian area of Amboise.
We were seated at the terrace. We chose a 22E menu. Our son went with child menu and received a very nicely presented steak hache with a fried egg on top and fries. We had to ask the steak cooked a bit longuer and his plate changed. He then had a choice of ice creams. The personnel was very nice and patient, they served us with smile and talked to our son every time they served us.
I went with a soup, very good and nicely presented and my husband chose the terrine. Followed by duck confit with delicious potatoes. I didn't find the duck being crisp, but it was good. We had a cheese plate with 3 pieces of cheese, one of which reminded me a havarti cheese. Then I chose a crumble, which was very tasty, but too sweet for me ( don't like too sweet and on rare occasions have a desert). My husband had the apple pie, which was not too sweet. He finished my crumble, but found it very sweet too.
The food was all very good and the wine, a rose was good, but I found it to be more rustic than the restaurant in Bracieux. My husband was happy to see big plates of food, but I couldn't finish all my potatoes. The visit of Amboise that followed was more difficult for him, since he ate a lot.
A very good experience in Amboise.
