La Popote was recommended by a local person as a good place to stop for lunch on the way to Troyes from Sézanne, so we gave it a try. We ordered the lunch of the day at 13 euros and were very disappointed, although perhaps the price should have been a warning. We were given a choice of starter when two of us three didn't want the one on offer but the alternative - terrine - turned out to be dry and flavourless; the main dish of turkey was vastly overcooked with a mystery sauce and some risotto-like rice. We had high hopes for the dessert buffet, which was a selection of tarts and fruit and a huge bowl of chocolate mousse, but nothing really lived up to expectations. The service was good, but next time, we'll just continue on to Troyes and find a nice place to eat there!
