Between Abbaybe aux Dames and the Ducal Chateau you'll find pretty Le Vaugueux. This picturesque street with its jumble of timbered houses verges on looking like France Street at a theme park. The restaurants and bars looked nice but on both occasions when we walked through here the place was dead. Completely empty. Plenty of people were wandering about, looking at the menus, but moving on. It’s more than just a street and not really a neighbourhood, but have a nosey as it’s quite pretty during the day. Maybe it picks up as the evening progresses.
