Le Patwa - Saint-Samson-sur-Rance

The Patwa specialities are from the island of La Réunion and I would warmly recommmend the spicy Pork, served with peanut and chili sauce. The menu is limited to what is on the blackboard and this is the kind of place where everything is cooked fresh and from the heart. The warm banana with a rum and caramel syrup is so delicious that even after a very generous portion of the main fare you still will not want to waste a mouthful. Price wise it is very affordable with an average of 12/15 euros for a main and 3/5 for a dessert. Unfortunately while chatting with the owner we discovered that they are moving on for lack of clients and too many overhead. This is a real shame as the cooking is as good as the welcome is warm. I wish this couple well in their next adventure and urge you to discover this place before it closes.
