Le Relais de Bonnezeaux will reopen
The well known restaurant, the Relais de Bonnezeaux which closed at the end of June when Robert Touchet, the longtime owner and chef retired, will be reopening. Touchet had been unable to find someone to take over from him. However, he has now found a young chef from Cholet who will take over. The deal was signed on Wednesday. The restaurant is on the hill out of Thouarcé in the heart of the Bonnezeaux vineyards. For some bizarre reason the Google map link doesn't work properly. Google can find the restaurant, provide a link but then can't find it again! Anyway it is on the D24 heading towards Angers and before you get to the hamlet of Bonnezeaux.
I don't know when the restaurant is due to reopen – details will be posted when I have them.
The news was reported in the Cholet edition of maville.com:
'Un Choletais va reprendre le restaurant de
Robert Touchet, véritable institution angevine basée à Thouarcé. Après deux
mois et demi de fermeture. Soulagement pour le chef qui avait pris sa retraite,
la mort à l'âme.
