Menton, part deux.

Lunch! We had a great lunch at Mirazur. Marc emailed the person whom he was previously in contact with about a stage at Mirazur and said we were coming for lunch and he would like to say hello and meet in person....it was a great idea. They (the kitchen anyways) treated us well! We got a couple extra dishes and the Front of House managers were very sweet and had a lot of interest in Marc. Our waiter, unfortunately, was pretty bad...or not eager to serve the youngest (and scruffiest looking) people in the restaurant.

On our way...

A little early so we take in the views outside Mirazur (also right at the Italian border)

The view from our table

The lunch menu...

...and the cheaper lunch menu we opted for.

And the food begins... You are going to hate me as I hardly knew what we ate (sorry, Marc's not here to tell either) :)
Amuse.

First delicious bite!

Bread served with housemade citrus olive oil (being as Menton is known for it's lemons, lots of the lunchers were buying this by the bottle).

A carpaccio of something fresh and seasonal :)

An extra course for Marc (potato and truffle I believe)

...and an extra course for me (artichoke and truffle)

The dining room. (The woman beside me took notes during her entire meal...critic?)

Our entrees...chicken and pork...I think :)

Marc just met the Chef!

My dessert, not too sweet, maybe a sour cream ice cream and some other stuff :)

...and an extra dessert for Marc (something citrus-y)

Dessert wine from Corsica...oh so sweet!

And the last of our petit fours. We forgot to take a picture of the other 3 that were on the plate...our stomachs were too eager, the food was amazing!

With it being a gorgeous day, and almost an hour walk back to our hotel, our full bellies and big smiles were happy for the walk :) :) :)
