Advantages: Great combo of taste and strength Disadvantages: None for me
mustard can disguise the taste of a steak as opposed to compliment it. Dijon Originale goes very well with most steaks. Sure, I occasionally prefer a wholegrain mustard, but every now and then, Dijon does the trick.
A 215g jar will cost you over £1, more than likely. Other mustards can be a lot cheaper, but I find that, with something like mustard, the quality is so much more important, especially when you consider it can change the whole taste of a meal with one small teaspoon of it. Cheaper mustards tend to be all about strength and less about the actual taste, and how it combines with the meal. One exception that I find is French's Mustard, which is perfect for things like burgers and hot dogs. My wife always makes sure we have a squeezy of this in the fridge at all times!
This is a great product that I recommend. It has a subtly ...
Advantages: Cheap, close to motorway Disadvantages: Very few facilities
I was looking for a cheap hotel in the area of Abbeville after my husband discovered it was about £50 cheaper (at least) for us to get the ferry to France on a Friday night than early on a Saturday morning, presumably because of all the day-trippers. I'd heard of Formule1 before, and seen many of their hotels around on previous journeys through France, so decided to check them out.
Background
Formule1 hotels can be seen across France, and are also available in other European countries, including the UK, Germany and Spain among others. For those of you travelling slightly further afield, there are Formule1 hotels in Brazil, Japan, South Africa and Australia too. They're easily identifiable by the bright yellow colour scheme they all seem to use, both on the website and on the buildings themselves.
They use a consistent ...
Advantages: affordable prices, architecture, wine, food, sightseeing Disadvantages: might get drunk and gain few pounds
Let’s tell a bit of myself first as I come from the region.
I was born in Chenove, only few miles away from Dijon. I lived in Nuits-St-Georges for my first seven years before moving down to the south of France. But I have a good visual perception of the city and I enjoy the visit every time I go there.
I will quickly tell a few words about Nuits: it is a small town but full of resources and lovely gardens and very nice architecture. It is also famous for wines. The industrial side (mainly Pampryl juice maker and Filiber printing company) plays an important part as it employs more than half of the Nuitons (people living in this city). I remember strolling around the old railways and being amazed by old trains. I used to go and watch my grandfather transferring wine from a bucket to these huge barrels and seal them ...
