Sainte Menehould - Le Cheval Rouge

The restaurant "le Cheval Rouge" is well worth a little detour or an overnight stay (in case you´ll have wine with your meal). I had learned that "pied de cochon" (= pig's trotter) is a speciality in Sainte-Menehould. So I tried it. It is quite good, though it looks - strange.

hen I was nibbling the meat off the bones, I thought of Louis XVI. When he tried to escape the Revolution in 1792, he and Marie-Antoinette were recognized in Sainte-Menehould by the local postmaster. The end is known.
