Bonne année 2010!

So, even though I've no idea where the last year went, the time has come to wish you all a very happy, healthy, sustainable, slow, successful and simply fantastic 2010! And to thank so many of you for your comments and emails - it's great to know that you're out there. For anyone who's wondering, Grillou will be opening to guests in summer 2010; we're not yet ready to take bookings, but watch this space from, say, March onwards. And in the meantime ...

Life is short. Break the rules; forgive quickly; kiss slowly; love truly; laugh uncontrollably; and never regret anything that made you smile.
