The Jardin des Plumes opened the doors to its new restaurant and hotel last November. I was lucky enough to be taken out to lunch there a few weeks ago, and I have to say that I can be hard to please, but this one was spectacularly good.
The restaurant and buildings have been completely renovated, and for the coming spring and summer there will be terraces laid up for al fresco dining too. The decor is contemporary and fresh. It has a luxurious and country feel to it , this blogger loved it!
The food that arrived on our plates was stunning! Truly delicious and so wonderful to look at that we all took our time to admire before we ate.
The restaurant has been created by Eric Guerin, who already boasts a Michelin star. The team is young and very charming. As we lingered over our meal, the chef was kind enough to come and share a glass of wine with us before we moved into the library for coffee.
I’m looking forward to eating there again very soon … maybe I’ll bump into you!

Outstanding presentation…just beautiful! On my bucket list if and when I get to Giverny!!
That looks amazing. Thanks for the recommendation (hope I get to use it one day)!
Bonjour Sharon. What a great place, not what you would expect in old Giverny, especially when looking at the building… I would love to give le Jardin des Plumes a try one day… Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
I have had lunch there and it is fabulous, thoroughly recommend it. x
This is a beautiful restaurant! And how nice for the chef to join you! I'm not recognizing some of the food, but that happens to me here in Chicago, too!

Thanks for sharing, Sharon! The decor is sublime and the food to beautiful to eat! You know how much we like anything that looks like flowers :)!
How gorgeous and the food is truly a work of art!
Beautiful post…wonderfully presented.
Looks lovely, so glad the food matched the surroundings. Its so disappointing when the food is a let down. Bet this restaurant will be full just through word of mouth!
How pretty, what a gorgeous country house. I bet if this one hit your 'houses for sale in Normandy' posts it would be snapped up within the week! I would love this just for the architecture, and then inside has been transformed so well too. If the food is spot on then it's definitely on the 'must-do' list! Jen x

I have never heard anyone admit to being hard to please – teehee . The food looks like art.
I live by the Epte at Berthenonville and go to Giverny often. Just saw the sign for the restaurant the other day – looks fab!
Hi Sharon!
Beautiful place and the food looks spectacular! I really enjoyed visiting Giverny last year:). Hope all is well with you and yours.
Best wishes XO
