Les Louchardes

It's impossible to sum up in just a few lines the story of this institution, whose star-studded career begun back in… 1926! Yet, Lameloise, whose interior features a string of warm, cosy dining rooms, each of which is appointed individually, is far from nostalgic. Éric Pras, former sous-chef to Jacques Lameloise, became head chef in 2009 when his mentor retired; as Éric puts it: "Tradition is the future." Faithful to the establishment’s founding spirit, as inspired as he is meticulous, Pras pays homage to Burgundy's terroir (snails, Bresse poultry, Charolais beef, Morvan hazelnut cazette) whil

An enthusiastic young couple is at the helm of this family - run inn on the village square. In the kitchen, Simon hops between traditional (eggs in red wine sauce, marbled, seasoned ham, coq au vin) and more modern creations; Maude ensures that her guests’ every need is met in the dining room. Definitely to be recommended.

After a glittering career in the region, youthful Rémi Genot has returned to his roots in this famous wine-growing village. He pays homage to local producers and showcases fine cuts of meat prepared by his father in the next-door butchers. As comfortable working with vegetables as with fish and meat, he creates meticulous dishes, packed in colour and character. He is also skilled at juxtaposing different textures, in dishes such as tomatoes, fresh smoked goat’s cheese, rose geranium; brill, green peas, girolles, shellfish and melissa jus. Burgundy takes pride of place in the wine cellar and An

On Place Carnot, not far from the Hôtel-Dieu, this restaurant with a modern façade occupies the ground floor of a picturesque old house. After stints with Robuchon and Ducasse, chef Christophe Quéant crafts modern, seasonal cuisine based on traditional textbook foundations. His top-quality ingredients are transformed into spot-on, straightforward dishes, blessedly free of fancy frills. The contemporary-style dining room, which sports a beige colour scheme and exposed stonework, is the perfect foil for delicious dishes such as sole fillets with mushrooms and tender leaves, or the Madagascan van

This elegant winegrower's manor house with a plush feel and bags of character is set in a leafy garden where tables are laid out in summer... It's the perfect setting in which to sample Jordan Billan's cuisine, which is rooted in the terroir of Burgundy and showcases the carefully-chosen suppliers. The chef's taste for tradition – think matured Charolais beef, bone marrow and a mustard and tarragon jus – does not prevent him from dreaming up more creative dishes with international influences, such as sole cooked on the bone with shellfish, kasha risotto, seaweed and nashi. Guests will also app

When a winemaker from the Côte de Beaune meets a starred chef, you get Prosper! This contemporary bistro in the Château Saint-Aubin is the result of a collaboration between the Prosper Maufoux wine estate and restaurateur Édouard Mignot (restaurant Ed.Em in Chassagne-Montrachet). The chef proposes a modern menu – gnocchi and shiitaké with comté and vin jaune cream; pork fillet mignon with sweetcorn foam, cabbage and bacon... Pleasant terrace with a view of the vineyards.

The tradition of hospitality is kept alive in this elegant house situated in the middle of extensive grounds dissected by a river. Here, chef Philippe Augé creates carefully prepared cuisine based on classic principles, resulting in dishes such as green carnaroli risotto with frogs’ legs and snails, calf sweetbreads with petits pois à la française and lime-leaf vinegar jus, and a Grand Marnier soufflé with blood orange sorbet. Make sure you save space for the cheese trolley which includes several dozen varieties! Impressive Burgundy wine list.
