WHERE TO EAT
Overall, we ate very well. Contrary to what the Parisians in “Emily in Paris” always say, Norman cuisine is very good. So you certainly can't go far wrong. Nevertheless, I would like to recommend three restaurants in particular:
Le Square (Deauville): This restaurant was my favorite of all, as every meal there was just so delicious. The most delicious dish, however, was the camembert. We could have all tucked into it!
Le Puits Fleuri (Vattetot-sur-Mer near Étretat): We went to this restaurant for mom's birthday and the food was very good! The only drawback: it's not for vegetarians. This wasn't ideal for me as I had to make an exception to my usual vegetarian diet. But it was worth it. The products all come from the region and the meat and fish are farmed with care, so I could eat it with a reasonably clear conscience.
Le Comptoir Henri IV wine bar (Rouen): In Rouen, we had a good time in the evening in a wine bar with cheese platters. All the cheeses were convincing and the wine was also delicious.
