  • Le Bouche à Oreille (which means word of mouth) in Bourges central France, was included on a map of starred restaurants published by Michelin on February 9.
  • The cafe is a lunch only bistro serviced by a part-time chef and the owner, Véronique Jacquet who runs between the bar and tables, with meals (including a jug of wine!) costing about €12.50.
