Probably an unfair night to review anything in France as, being a Sunday evening, and the Big Match I was lucky to find anywhere serving food! Needless to say, all the seats facing the television were taken but being "neutral" I was happy to face away. As can be imagined, there was plenty of atmosphere, inside and outside, and, given minds otherwise occupied, I had a pleasant meal. Nothing spectacular, neither cheap nor expensive and served by friendly staff who, although busy, keeping other patrons lubricated and with a third eye on the television, kept my meal going. Three courses plus two thirds of a bottle of wine and I was walking back to the hotel by half-time! Looking through the bunting and hats, there was a slightly faded atmosphere to the Gran Torino but that may have been the result of extra tables and chairs for this one night. I would go back but, given a normal evening, I would be more likely to see what else Chambery has to offer.
