Anyone who gets inland as far as the Memorial de Montormel, over-looking the Falaise Pocket, make sure you stop at Le Mont-Ormel Restaurant for lunch. It's just a couple of hundred yards from the museum. Absolutely superb food, freshly prepared from quality local ingredients. A very simple menu, a 3 course set lunch with 3 or 4 choices in each course (which vary from day to day)
I had homemade rillettes, chicken in cream and mushroom sauce with a big pile of frites and a rhubard tart. Wonderful and only 14 euros for 3 courses!

Very jealous, and not just of the lunch ;)
