Windmill of the Cotentin

Quite the experience!Although our reservation via TheFork wasn&#39;t in their ledger, we were ushered into the expansive, opulent dining room without delay, to find just three tables. Niche dining, old style.There was a never-ending supply of home-baked bread, and we were served amuse-bouches quickly, explained in French. Fortunately, the main lady did speak good English (eventually).We chose &#39;Les Croquis de Blainville&#39; menu at &euro;58 each, selecting differing starters and desserts but concurring on the duck for main. The service throughout was superb, and the presentation of all dishes was exquisite, although with my basic French (my partner speaks not a word), the long-winded descriptions of everything passed us both by.  The subtlety of the flavours combined with several aspects we didn&#39;t enjoy (I hate aniseed and the like) left us feeling underwhelmed, to be honest.At around &euro;150, including a couple of glasses of wine, the price was incredible for a Michelin-starred establishment. Go!

Appointment must for Brunch in this stunning venue. Superb on point service &amp; Food  matches the elegant decor and setting of Samphire
