Carpe Diem — Restaurant in Briançon

Very-very drunk waiter. Forgot all the time something. Forgot to bring 2 drinks out. Did not bring out the dessert of the menu,he came to our table approximetly 20 minutes later after that we ran out of food and asked us if we want to order any dessert ,meanwhile we already did,it was part of the menu. We had to ask him 3 times to let us pay and after that it took more then 20 minutes to ship us the invoice. After that we agreed with him the first time that we want to pay he came back 5 minutes later like who forgot that we talked and asked us for the 2. time if we want to have a dessert meanwhile we already have eaten it.

It is cultural for food to take a while in Southern Europe. Otherwise, every minute of the restaurant was...

Awful experience on Nee year’s eve. They proposed a 60 euros fixed menu. We started with an “Amuse bouche” basically made of heated frozen pre-made small appetisers that you can find at Picard. Then we got Fois Gras which was likely pre-made too, with toasted pan-Carré loafs, commercial jam, and lot of salad and random fruits. It followed a fondue with commercial charcuterie and potatoes (these at least were actually cooked/boiled). We ended with a selection of desserts that still were pre-made from a random supermarket. In a nutshell, nothing was cooked and service was quite bad. Worst dinner in a long time and looked a bit like a joke, especially for a 60 euros menu. Definitely not recommended, despite the location...
