La Crinoline - Tilques

A very enjoyable meal in very interesting surroundings. Unfortunately there was only one other couple there and although we enjoyed our meal there was no atmosphere. A shame as it had a very good menu but parking could be a problem as it was on the main road to St Omer and easily passed by.

This was amazing value special menu for the week was 22.50 euros including aperitif wine. We chose: scallops 3 (with corals) in a nice watercress sauce; chicken breast fillet in Maroilles sauce (a local classic) with beautiful crisp topped mash in a potato skin, brussels sprouts, lots of young salad leaves; interestingly boozy puds were tiramisu with rhubarb, ice cream with local genievre. It was all well made good fresh food if not high gastronomy. Welcome lovely, service charming; room is very large with a nice open fire (sit near on nasty cold day). Weak points bread slices a bit dry (butter not offered), coffee a bit cool but came in pot so got refills. Might ask if espresso available next time.

A friendly place, or time stops for the pleasure of the little ones and great ones. with great animations and delicious meals!!! a team up, very pro. we come back with great pleasure!!! Thanks for the reception and organization of the birthday surprise soon to the guinguette :
