Courtney Barnard reviewed French Cooking School
I cannot reccomend Kerrouet Culinary School more. Under Chef Poul even the most experienced of our small group of 6 learned the cooking skills and tricks of a Michelan standard. As for those less experienced, myself included, I've emerged from the school a more confident and skilled chef, fully capable of making authentic French cuisine.
More than this, enjoying all the fantastic food we made during our time in Kerrouet would not be nearly as easy without the carefree and effortless hosting of Poul and Niall, who taught us the art of hosting by example. We enjoyed our meals, aperitifs, digestifs, snacks, and afternoon teas/coffees all the more because of the company and the friendliness of our knowledgable hosts in their stunny and cosy home.
Finally, a word on the location of Kerrouet. While the village is somewhat remote, it provides an excellent base for those keen to explore the surrounding medieval towns of Brittany, and we enjoyed walking the beautiful countryside on our free afternoons. The tranquility and peacefulness of Kerroeut provided the perfect place to learn the local cuisine, with all the delicious locally-sourced ingredients used to make the dishes.
For those looking for a relaxed and yet genuine French cooking course, look no further than Kerrouet! The hospitality of Poul and Niall is matched only by the quality of the food you will produce during your time here.

Mike Cygnus reviewed Buffalo Grill Meaux (Nanteuil Les Meaux)
I don’t normally do food reviews but I have to write something for this one. Before I continue I would like to state that we come from an Indian background. I knew the name was Buffalo Grill so I didn’t expect to see a lot of colored people, but I did not expect to feel like I was in Texas in 1957 either.
I went to Buffalo Grill in the city of Meaux France with my wife and 4 month old baby. As soon as we entered the restaurant we found a table and sat down. It was half full so there were guests but it seemed like an ordinary day. Everything felt good until the nightmare slowly began.
We waited for the waitress to come to our table but nothing happened. She had already seen us but didn’t care. She served everyone else except us. Some time goes by, 10 min. nothing happens, 20 min. nothing happens, after 30 min. of waiting my wife kindly asks the waitress if we can order and she looks surprised and then take down our order. After a while we receive the food in horrible condition. The steak was not well cooked, there was blood coming out when you stuck your fork in it. The fries were cold and to finish it off, we didn’t receive any kind of sauce at all, not even mayo or ketchup. I tried to get her attention but she was ignoring me so I had to get up and look for her to get what we wanted.
We were the only colored people in the restaurant and I’m normally very careful when judging other people but this experience felt really uncomfortable. The waitress did everything to show us that we were not welcome here. I’m giving Buffalo Grill in Meaux 1 star because of very bad service and very bad food as well. If you have a different skin colour than white then find another place to eat.

I was looking forward to this meal and extremely disappointed. Tortilla chips we ordered were stale, and we got about 2 euros worth for 10. We asked for new ones, they were also stale. Mains were very small for 25/27 a piece (though they tasted very nice) . I booked a table online, and when me and my boyfriend arrived we were told we were going to be sat at the bar. I wouldn't mind if we'd just shown up, but I booked a TABLE and there was no mention that we might be seated at the bar online. Couldn't leave because they had a 40 deposit we'd lose. Was uncomfortable the whole time. Music and bartenders were too loud for us to have a conversation, this meal was supposed to be a special celebration. I ordered a strawberry daiquiri and after a 10 minute wait was told the machine wasn't working, so told them to leave it. Ended up eating and leaving as fast as we could as we weren't enjoying ourselves at all. Staff was wonderful, really nice and helpful, but I don't think I got what I paid for.
