Now you all know my obsession for all things French right? The only hint he would give me was that our getaway had a French theme. So imagine my happiness when we arrived after a 45 minute drive to Chateau De Pere in De Pere Wisconsin. I had been to the restaurant, Café Chanson just this past summer for a Paris girls reunion lunch, so I was a little familiar with that. This restaurant offers traditional French food.
Not only were we going to have a dinner later in the restarant, but we were going to stay overnight in the beautiful 36 suite hotel! After we checked in we took the elevator to the second floor to find a beautifuly decorated King Suite with a single whirlpool tub. It was a corner room, so we had a view of the river on two sides. We found the room to be quiet and the king sized bed to be incredibly comfortable. The great part was they are running a special for the month of April. All rooms are just $69.00 a night! Check out the website for details.
We had early dinner reservations ay Café Chanson since we were going to a comedy club later. It was a Friday night and being it was quite early there were not many people in the dining room. I started out with a white chocolate martini. We then ordered a Cassolette for starters and for dinner I ordered Beef Bourguignon. Both were delicious!
It was a perfect overnight getaway! So if you are looking for a wonderful French themed place to escape to, look no further than De Pere Wisconsin. De Pere is just a short distance to Green Bay and the famed Lambeau Field which is the home of the world famous Green Bay Packers
