One Star: High quality cooking
After a tour of Saint Philibert Abbey, take a break at this enchanting address. Bare stone walls and large untreated solid oak tables set the scene indoors, flooded in light thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows. The peaceful garden and the welcome from the chef’s wife are also outstanding. Chef Jean-Michel is an enthusiast, capable of changing his gourmet offering from one table to another in the same evening. His approach is entirely instinctive. His food is thus rich in emotion and establishes a natural complicity with the region, particularly through the use of first-rate local fruit, vegetables and other produce, whilst compromising nothing in terms of high-precision cooking. His weekday lunchtime market menu is a bargain!
"We work with a network of local fishermen and organic farmers, as well as our own vegetable garden. Most of the wines on our list are made according to biodynamic principles. We practice responsible booking and we support the educational charity L’Ecole Comestible. Our kitchen waste is dehydrated and transformed into fertilizer, and we reuse kitchen water to water the flowers."
