In the heart of the village, this traditional eatery offers a choice between a dining room whose countrified décor is dotted with the odd contemporary touch, or, in fine weather, a terrace shaded by mulberry plane trees that commands an exquisite view as far as Château Guiraud, which owns the restaurant. Yoann Amado, former chef of Maison Darroze in Langon, and his pastry chef partner, Juliette Bonnart, craft a scrumptious gourmet score that hits the spot every time: truly flavoursome oxheart tomatoes, burrata of goat’s cheese, infusion of tomato water and verbena; trout marinated in miso and confit, baby spinach shoots, beurre blanc of pike roe; vanilla-flavoured crème brûlée, apricots and an exquisite last-minute lemon thyme-flavoured sorbet.
