L'Embellie

Our best dinner for the whole vacation was at L'Embellie in Tours.  It was Monday, most restaurants closed, hotel recommended this place. Just around the corner from our hotel, next to the famous building with Mozart's bust.

Restaurant is in the heart of Pace Plumereau, next to the Mozart Building

Zander is the famous river fish there---like trout.  It was just ok, but I wanted to try the local seafood! Zander au gratin with white mashed potatoes
