Colmar This town definately stands out as another "off the beaten track" The taxi ride to the Hotel St Martin is 5 euro. Not bad, compared to the taxi ride from Beaune to Dijon which is 70 euro. (i opted for the train) The Chocoutrie at the restaurant across the street was wonderful. This dish remind me of something i studied at the ISG; Germany's cuisine is all about pigs. The Hotel St Martin is a top suggestion in Rick Steves book, but leaves a lot to be desired. All things being equal, this hotel pales in comparison to the Le Cep. The staff ( maybe just the one woman i encountered) put a little less effort in making my stay an easy transition.
