We are not bothered with soups, sandwiches, pizza most days, but wondered if we could have a sit down meal with something a little more appetizing than that for our wedding day meal... We are having a small scale affair (just the 2 of us, our 2 children and a friend/caregiver for children), so no need for banquet style...any suggestions?

Does not look much from the outside but it is nice inside. If you are interested I can give you directions. Likewise, as it is a special event you might consider a place like (I bet I get this one wrong) Hotel de Modern de Pigeon in Limoux. It is Michelin star (2 or possibly 3 I can't remember) and I would imagine if you contact them they may suggest a veggie menu specially for your party. http://www.chambresdhote.com    Report

Pierre the chef/owner is very inventive and whislt he does not do a vegetarian menu per se - a number of his dishes are vegetarian . I am sure he can accomodate your wishes if you give him some advance notice. If, as somebody else suggested, you are happy with fish/seafood then they have a range of dishhes to suit. rgds   Hagr            Report
