🇫🇷 Tours Food Guide: Must-Tries & What to Skip 🍽️✨

✅ Chez Madie (4/5 🌹) 📍 Located at the medieval Place Plumereau Duck Confit: Tender, flavorful, with zucchini & potato gratin (a bit hard). Dessert: Rosemary cheesecake topped with gooseberries (juicy & sweet like tomatoes). 💡 Solid choice for traditional French fare! ❌ Brasserie Madeleine (2.5/5 🌹) 📍 Near Galeries Lafayette (Tram: Nationale) Starter: Goat cheese bread (too gamey). Main: Bland, dry cod with jasmine rice (okay but boring). Dessert: "Tiramisu" was just white cream—where’s the coffee?! ☕🚫 💡 Great location, but food feels like an afterthought. ✅ Maison Gloria (4/5 🌹) 📍 Tram: Jean Jaurès, behind plane trees Starter: Generous salmon portion (a tad salty). Main: Local st. Perrier fish (steamed, light) with roasted veggies (beets, zucchini, sweet potato). Dessert: Creamy cheesecake with lime & starfruit—unique! 🌟 💡 Fresh ingredients, creative twists! ✅ L’Univers (4/5 🌹) 📍 Facing the fountain square Highlights: Terrine, roast chicken (juicy!), and fudgy brownie. 💡 Reliable and cozy—perfect for classic bistro vibes. ❌ Le Conti (2.5/5 🌹) Starter: Spanish charcuterie board (generous but served with rock-hard burnt bread). Main: Suspicious "squid rings" (mushy, reconstituted texture) with fries. 🦑🚫 💡 Stick to their charcuterie—skip the seafood. 🇫🇷 Tipping in France? Locals confirm: No need to tip! Service charge is included. But rounding up (e.g., €2) is appreciated for great service. 💶✨ #FrenchCuisine #ToursFoodie #EatLikeALocal #FoodieFails #LoireValleyEats #TravelTips #NoTippingNeeded 😉🍷
