Restaurant
The Vegetarian Restaurant at La Maison du Vert is here
to serve you delicious gourmet vegetarian and Vegan menus
with plenty of choice. Over the past 5 years our restaurant
has gained an excellent reputation with locals and tourists
visiting from all over the world. Our cuisine reflects
this, offering flavour sensations from all corners of
the globe, perfectly combined in our completely vegetarian
kitchen.
|
|
Your evening starts with
tasty olives served with your pre-dinner drinks which
you can enjoy outside in our beautiful relaxing gardens
or in our comfortable guest lounge. This is followed by
your choice of dishes from our current menu (see example
below). We always serve our popular homemade organic bread
with garden herb flavoured butters to accompany your meal.

|

|
All our
dishes are home made with the freshest produce available,
the majority being our own home grown organic vegetables,
fruit and herbs.
We believe that the best eating experience is created
out of vegetarian, organic, environmentally friendly food.
Our menu has plenty of choice for vegans and most dishes
can be adapted to be vegan.We will happily cater for guests with allergies with advance
notice.
|
|
All of our eggs are from
our free-range, well-loved chickens who live with freedom
at the bottom of the garden until they are old and go
to chicken heaven.
|
 |
 |
We also happily cater for special diets such as Gluten
free.
We don't have a children's menu as they vary so much with
their tastes so we just cook them what they like to eat!
Some will happily eat from the menu whilst others prefer
plainer foods such as pasta or jacket potatoes.
Just let us know when you book if you have any special
requirements.

The restaurant is sophisticatedly
decorated, with cream drapes framing the lovely views
of our garden and the village from the window. There are
always fresh flowers from our garden on every table. A
mix of both French and English ambient music emphasizes
this relaxing atmosphere. You can choose to eat on our garden terrace if you prefer,
enjoying our beautiful gardens and the lush Normandy countryside.

From our mouth-watering
menu to our organic wines, carefully chosen to complement
vegetarian food, much care and attention to detail is
taken. Presentation and nutritional quality is just as
important to us as the delectable taste.
We offer many different liqueurs and spirits (the famous
local calvados being one important one!) cocktails and
coffees, as well as a wide range of herbal and fruit teas,
non-alcoholic cordials (some home made), juices, local
organic apple or pear cider and bottled waters.
