Viva La Plancha

Agen does have a Michelin-starred restaurant--Mariottat. We didn't know when we would arrive in Agen and didn't make a reservation. Unfortunately, they didn't have any tables available at the last minute.

We ended up at Viva La Plancha and I was happy we found it.

Viva La Plancha was filled with locals on their lunch break. It's located at 3 rue Emile Sentini.

We had a bottle of rose--€13.

Amuse bouche of country pate.

There was a Menu Tout Canard--€23. It started with foie gras. Yes, this is one serving.

Duck Confit was one option for the main. The other option was grilled duck breast.

One of the options for dessert was chocolate ganache. This was amazing. It was rich and thick.

Gambas (with heads) and fries

Their specialty is steak sliced wafer thin. This is 300 grams (3/4 lbs) for €10. This was a great deal and the beef was incredibly tender. I would go back to Agen just to have this again.
