In an attractive walking street we trundled into this restaurant on a very hot day and were more attracted to the air conditioning than anything else. It was a Saturday night but France (and England) were playing in the World Cup and clearly, even in Burgundy, the game took preference over dining and this restaurant was lightly populated. However the staff provided us with a seat under the aircon and first class service from there on in.
The Gastronomic menu started with a foie gras salad style dish, nicely presented with height and colour, followed by fish with asparagus and then Pan-fried fillet of Charolais beef specially prepared with foie gras and a side dish of scalloped potatoes. Quite delicious but the little pre-desert barely prepared us for the raspberry mille fleur. As the pictures attest to this was a top class meal.
