For lunch today, we visited the Brasserie Blanc restaurant in Quakers Friar, Bristol.
The Bristol restaurant is a fairly recent addition to Blanc's lengthy chain of Brasserie restaurants, and a very delightful one at that. The ambience is busy and cheerful, while the wait-staff are helpful and very knowledgable.
Up until 6pm, customers can indulge in the lunch-time 'Dine with Wine' menu - £12.95 for two courses or £14.95 for three - along with a glass of the house wine. For £14.95, diners (on a Sunday) can also choose to opt for their very substantial roast dinner, which today consisted of Beef.
I must say, the a la carte menu is quite delectable, with the smoked haddock and slow-cooked beef being the stand out options.
My main of rocket, ricotta and spinach tart with a salad garnish, seemed a light and freshing lunch-time option. The tart was beautifully homemade, with a brilliantly light pastry casing.
This brasserie really is perfect for a clear, autumnal day like today. And if you have brought your coat, I would advise you to sit outside, with your glass of (free) wine and watch the world go by. Is there any better way to spend a Sunday afternoon?
