Le Lézard Vert à Epeigné-les-Bois: changement de propriétaires

Epeigné-les-Bois' shop, bar and restaurant combined – Le Lézard Vert – is changing hands. It will close this evening and reopen on Thursday 31st March.  

It will be sad to see Stéphanie and Nacer go as they have provided great and friendly service, although they will continue to live in the village. 

Bienvenue Sylvia, Bernard et Jerémie !

Le roi de Couscous!

Stéphanie and Nacer, who have run Le Lézard Vert in Epeigné-les-Bois for a number of years now, have sold up and will be handing over to the new owners on 23rd March. Last night they hosted their last big dinner – 34 members of the Association des Amis des Patrimoines d'Epeigné-les-Bois.

Last night's paella and Little Big Yaz was a great success with more than 90 people present – 87 meals served – with tables spilling out into the street. It was helped by a mild and balmy evening. The music finished at midnight but the last revellers left at 3am.
