A la Chaume de mon Pere - Gérardmer

Fantastic coffee. Great menu. Small selection of specialty deli items. Gourmet chocolates. Home made gelato.

Struggled to find somewhere open on a Tuesday in Gerardmer and found this place whilst driving around. Luckily we were early (7ish) and got a table, as it soon filled up (and is quite small). The room is tastefully decorated to reflect local industry. There are plenty of Alsacienne dishes on the menu, and we had a variety of these. I had the hot rolled park to start (which was delicious) followed by the Choucroute which was enormous (and delicious). There were several types of preserved meat including a large sausage and a huge portion of local andouillette on a bed of saurkraut and boiled potato served in a casserole. It was very tasty. Wanting to sample all things local I had the taste Myrtille to follow. All our party enjoyed their food. We had starters and mains for 4, one pudding and three coffees, a bottle of wine and 4 aperitifs and the bill came to Euro134, so pretty good value. The service was efficient. I would certainly recommend booking.

This is a small restaurant with only a handful of tables, so stop by and make a reservation or call. We found out at our last visit that the place has new owners and with that a new menu. So the pierade that we set our minds on was no longer available. Small change of plans and we went for the raclette. That was not a bad option either. Basically the kitchen offers traditional regional food. Everything we have tried has been tasty and well prepared. The place itself is very cozy and the staff friendly. Price level reasonable.

We ordered two dishes and this review is based upon those two. We might just have been unlucky, or ordered the wrong thing, but the food was not good. The dishes were Entrecote and a mix of beef and chicken which was grilled by ourselves on a pierrade (grill-stone).The Entrecote was extremely chewy and full of fat. What could be eaten tasted quite OK though and it was grilled perfectly as per my request.The pierrade meat was not marinated at all so the meat was more or less tasteless.The only thing saving the place was the nice waitress and her good service.

I would have put 5 stars if possible, but the application does not give it the possibility. restaurant that offers a full vegetarian or vegan menu! the menus are in 4 dishes and are worth 46€: a butchery (composed when I came from three beautiful mouths) a small entrance a large entrance a dish a dessert and delicious homemade breads. possibility to add cheese in addition to vegetarians. all menus are surprises and change over the seasons and inspire the chef. we cannot know in advance, but let yourself be guided you can trust them. I was very pleasantly surprised to have a beautiful piece of spicy seitan in the main dish! plant proteins are very often absent from plant meals in general in restaurants that also make meat. service is fast, original dishes, friendly waitress, comfortable room and not very strong. I have only a positive idea to say.
