A restaurant in the French department of Doubs has introduced a special menu designed to be both affordable and community-focused. The restaurant, L’Écluse, announced the launch of its "anti-crisis and solidarity" menu on Wednesday, October 7, through its social media accounts. The menu includes dishes such as a terrine or a tomato salad as appetizers, fried chicken or pork stir-fry as main courses, and panna cotta or a slice of apple pie for dessert. In the following week, the menu will feature warm camembert, rabbit stir-fry, and onion beef. The restaurant has confirmed that the menu will be available "present indefinitely," meaning it will remain on the menu for the foreseeable future.
Co-manager Arnaud Messlin-Laurainne, who runs the restaurant with his partner Sabrina, explained that the restaurant is able to offer the menu due to suppliers providing goods at reasonable prices. The goal is to encourage more frequent purchases during the week by offering a consistent and affordable option. Messlin-Laurainne admitted that some products of lower quality are used to ensure the menu stays within the ten euro price point.
The initiative has received positive feedback from regular customers, who have praised the restaurant's efforts on social media. Some have expressed their intention to visit L’Écluse soon to try the menu. The restaurant has confirmed that the anti-crisis menu will be available "every week and indefinitely," reinforcing its commitment to providing affordable meals during challenging economic times.
