Les Épices Curiens

Modern Cuisine · Bib

€€

When strolling around the area you could easily cross over into Belgium without realising it. But the former train station of this border village, since converted into a lovely restaurant, will encourage you to stay in France. Sample the inspired cuisine and nicely prepared dishes, all paired with good local wines. Lots of taste!

Hostellerie du Château des Monthairons

Modern Cuisine

€€€

This family-run château restaurant serves meticulous cuisine, in which more contemporary touches meet classic foundations. As you might imagine, this 19C château in the Meuse Valley is a superb backdrop, with mouldings, old hardwood floors and plush drapes.

La Gourmandière

Modern Cuisine

€€€

A longstanding Ardennes institution, this plush 1890 property is enjoying a new lease of life courtesy of two young brothers-cum-partners. The deftly plated dishes slalom between tradition and modernity: pressed foie gras laced in old rum, veal sweetbread, Rossini tournedos steak, turbot and risotto of fregola sarda… Gloriously peaceful patio to the rear.
