One Star: High quality cooking
The fine dining restaurant at Château de Montcaud is headed up by a chef with international experience, the talented Matthieu Hervé. A constantly updated surprise set menu offers a succession of beautiful, meticulously prepared dishes: blue crab, jellied langoustine consommé; John Dory, romesco sauce, rock fish soup (a dish bursting with sunshine); fillet of veal in a crust of fresh herbs, cream of chanterelle mushrooms and espuma of hay (a dish embellished with magnificent sauces). The intimate setting of a delightful courtyard covered with Virginia creeper accommodates only six or seven tables, ensuring a first-rate experience.
