La Cité in
Carcassonne is full of restaurants, but quite a few are not really worth the
prize. There are however some who are very good. We found one the other day – La
Courtine. It is situated in the corner of Place Marcou, there you find lots of restaurants,
most of them not worth a visit.
As we had
our grand-children with us we were looking for a restaurant where they served
spaghetti- This Italian restaurant did so. Ourselves we had their menu of the day
and it was a good choice. The meat was tender and cooked to our liking and the
chips and the salad was perfect. The dessert of the day was delicious. My wife
however took a cheese-platter and I had café gourmande. The cheese was of very
good quality which is not very common on less expensive menus. The restaurant
also had pizzas which they had earned a prize for. We might try that next time.
The service
was nice and friendly. The bill was however a small chock. They had added 16
euros together for my upgrade of dessert and my wife’s cheese. When we pointed
it out they corrected it and gave us 10 euros back. It was probably a mistake
this time, but it is too often in the summer that such mistakes happens to
tourists. They might not think tourists are observant enough or do not master
French enough to complain.
