La Chaumière - Beuvry-la-Forêt Beuvry La Foret

To play Little Red Riding Hood at La Chaumière, a restaurant housed in a lovely brick building flowered with geraniums, located on the edge of the Scarpe-Escaut natural park, between Lille and Valenciennes.

For La Chaumière’s “family home” allure, with its brass details, tablecloths, and French-style ceiling.

For the charming hosts, Claudie and René Pawlak, who treat their guests to generous local dishes.

For their 100% French meat and poultry, their carefully refined cheese trolley with forty selections, and their generously stocked cellar.

Your gourmand mother.

CEOs in the afternoon; couples in the evening.

As a starter, try the dozen escargots with garlic butter (16€); as a main dish, Tournedos Rossini with foie gras and truffles (25€); and for dessert, frozen chocolate parfait (7€).

Try the half bottle of Hermitage 2000 “La Sizeranne”.

The round table for four or the tables along the windows for two.
