Late May in Giverny

[dlc]

My wife and I are going to be in paris in Late May for a few days. We are wanting to do a day trip to Giverny as we have never hit the Gardens in the Spring. Where would you suggest that we have lunch on our trip? I have searched this board but found very little about the area. It seems that Vernon may have more choices. As we will be doing the garden thing we will be more casually dressed than our normal coat/tie for Paris. Thanks in advance

That's a great period to visit.

Personally I would picnic in the nearby beautiful village of La Roche Guyon. -- Would you have a car? If you do, you can also picnic there or lunch at Les Bords de Seine, good cuisine bourgeoise in a nice setting.

There are two places in Giverny that I love. The pricier one is Les Jardins des Giverny.

the other is the charming antiente Hotel Baudy. Not a hotel now but it was when the American painters

came to be near Monet. I'll find the site and post it.
