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.

This dinky town centre eatery is run by a couple with an enviable track record.

Le Bistrot de la Gare

Now a destination for food lovers, this bistro was once a station building (on the former PLM network). It has lost none of its charm – brick semi-circular arches, wooden shutters painted in the green of France's SNCF railway and a clock on the façade; inside, original terracotta floor tiles, wood and wrought-iron tables, and wallpaper with 1970s patterns. Clémence (front of house) and Sacha (kitchen) are the young couple at the controls. His indulgent contemporary dishes – pâté en croûte and seasonal pickles; free-range poultry, gnocchi, sweetcorn and spinach; chocolate tart – showcase colour

Le Clos Perché

This quintessential rural inn on the way into a tiny village, perched high up on the plateaux of the Monts du Forez at an altitude of 1,150m, is home to Julien Magne. The chef rustles up colourful, inventive dishes with a playful approach that will bring a smile to your face! The desserts are of the same calibre: a sweet-toothed pâté en croûte, apple quince and chestnut ice cream, or French toast of brioche with pinenuts and orange and a roquette-laced ice cream!

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
