Youth, enthusiasm and unbridled creativity: chef Matéo Ravel is a real ball of energy in his trendy bistro with an open kitchen and exposed pipework. A true artisan, he cultivates relationships with a network of small-scale producers and natural winemakers. He bakes his own natural sourdough bread (it's excellent) and has mastered various fermentation techniques, which he incorporates into flavour-packed seasonal recipes: pollock white pudding with fenugreek and a Comté foam, Duroc pork loin, cauliflower and a robust grape-seed jus, or dark chocolate flan with tonka bean served warm with Piper

Overlooking the golf course from his sleek, crisp, contemporary premises, Marc Lecroisey is at the helm of one of the city’s most talked about restaurants. The chef orchestrates a flavoursome, vibrant score entirely in tune with the seasons. Snails, lobster, turbot and Charolais beef are consummately executed and flanked by knockout jus. The seamless service is fully the equal of the elegant establishment. Wide choice of menus, splendid cheese platter and a wine list designed to tickle the fancy of a faithful clientele of connoisseurs.

Originally from Cuzieu, a mere 2km away, Antoine Bergeron is very much a local boy. Ambitious and passionate about his work, he takes you on a surprise fine dining journey that subtly, creatively and joyfully showcases ingredients from hand-picked suppliers. Comfortably seated in the bright, contemporary dining room, you will enjoy a culinary tour of the region and the local markets. For example, Drôme zander with sorrel, tarragon and vanilla-laced fish stock; fillet of Aubrac beef, red cabbage in walnut oil and anise hyssop sabayon. Food that nurtures the soul, with special mention for the sa

At a remove from the centre, this former inn on the D10 catches the eye with its orange walls. The comfortable interior feels authentic and radiates light and warmth with its untreated wooden beams, exposed stone walls, warm wooden floors and Scandinavian furniture. Samuel Roche and Fahim Touloum, two friends who are chefs, have refurbished the premises, and cultivate a vast 3 000m2 vegetable garden behind the house, complete with a few hens. Their technical and generous cuisine celebrates seasonal produce and revisits local recipes (based on perch or catfish, for example), as well as desserts

Youthful chef Pierre Carducci has set up shop in this handsome early 20C château, restored in a cosy, contemporary vein. He painstakingly orchestrates a menu that is as creative as it is bold, in which organic produce, notably from his father's market garden, takes pride of place. Everything is served in tableware made by the chef’s mother in another detail that is emblematic of the house ethos. Hats off too, to the eclectic wine list, with a preponderance of organic, natural and/or biodynamic tipples. Stay for longer in one of the spacious, gloriously uncluttered guestrooms, named after plant

This stately stone manor is aptly named. Inside, a certain Scandinavian simplicity reigns – with exposed stone walls, light oak tables and grey upholstered chairs. This is the first venture of a young couple of professionals who honed their skills in starred establishments: Mickaël Marcoux in the kitchen and Marie-Jeanne Rault in the front of house. Playing on the full spectrum of textures, the dishes showcase savvy combinations (green asparagus, buckwheat, smoked pike roe and wild garlic sabayon) and punchy flavours (stuffed morels, fregola risotto, vin jaune emulsion).
