Hiya Jim and welcome to the good ship Around Monty.
Can't really add much to what Fred has already written other than the food here - when you know where to look - is absolutely brilliant.
Get yourself out here and sample a fine Sunday lunch at Le Lucullus in the Hotel De France, an equally fine repas at La Voulzie on the banks of the river Gartempe whilst watching mad kayak-crazy youngsters trying to kill themselves over the rapids.
Don't worry about the area not being a wine producing region. There's vat loads of very good stuff in the local supermarkets and at the family run wine merchants down the road in Lathus.
I could go on and on - in fact I frequently do - but in short, welcome to the forum. Any questions, just post and someone will have the answer.
