L' Auberge du Dragon Rouge (The Red Dragon Inn) and its owner, Martin Gauthier, have been welcoming passersby and adventurers in search of victuals and beer since October 1992. For Martin, the love of the medieval era goes back to his childhood. "We used to play Dungeons and Dragons, and the passion for the game turned into a passion for history. That passion for history led to my interest in the culinary arts of the Middle Ages," he explains.
But Martin's entrepreneurial spirit stretches back to when he was a teen. During his high school years, he was printing on clothing. "At 16, I was already in my element," he says. "We had a premises, graphic artists and employees." When he was 20, he sold his shares in the printing company to embark on his epic quest, setting out on the road to adventure, a road that led into the great world of catering.

I went here for a birthday party as part of a large group. This place is quite unique.. the inside is made up like a wooden medieval tavern/inn. They asked us to put on rag-like robes over our clothes. Your food is served in a wooden bowls and plates and is simple.. you have to eat most of the food with your hands. The sing for you using instruments that are made to look like lutes and a wooden flute. They had games between the courses for entertainment. Clearly they were trying to recreate a medieval experience, so anybody who wants that would probably enjoy the place. I don't know how much of our experience was due to it being a birthday event but it was fun nonetheless. Personally, I didn't enjoy the food all that much and the price was a bit steep, but this is a place you go to for the entertainment and originality more than the food. I suspect somebody who was into the medieval thing more than me would love it.
