杜河滨酒店

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

Laurent Barberot, a chef with an impressive CV (Plaza Athénée in Paris, La Pyramide in Vienne, La Côte d'Or in Saulieu, Le Clos des Sens in Annecy), presides in this modern inn on the doorstep of Dole. His single set menu showcases the best of seasonal produce with a sprinkling of regional touches, such as smoked eel, hand-dived scallops, Bresse poultry and Jura cheeses. N.B. The fine dining restaurant is only open Friday evening to Saturday evening.

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 tranquil watermill by a millstream abuts a cottage garden. After growing up in the Charolais countryside, chef Cédric Burtin, who trained with world-calibre Lyon chefs of the ilk of Paul Bocuse and Pierre Orsi, has come into his own as he explores the cornucopia of Burgundy. In addition to a savvily mastered creative streak, this authentic, delicate chef has a flair for adding a playful spin to the region’s ingredients and recipes. His surprise menu rolls out delicacies such as whitefish from Lake Geneva, confit and smoked with whitefish charcuterie, runner beans and a jus made from fishb

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

This 18C manor house with a pink façade and Italianate columns overlooking the Saône valley is aptly named! With his wife, a sommelier and the daughter of winegrowers, Romuald Fassenet has turned this Classical edifice into a pared-back designer establishment with a handful of charming guestrooms providing overnight accommodation near Dole. His bold, appetising food reveals his genuine passion for the Jura terroir (in fact, he was sous-chef to chef Jean-Paul Jeunet) and is based on a sound mastery of technical skills. He makes superb sauces with Jura vin jaune; AOC poularde de Bresse, morels,

Born in Beaune, Rudy Villien first fell in the love with Le Charlemagne during an internship, so he and his partner, Léa Matéos, leapt at the opportunity to take over this eatery in the heart of the Corton-Charlemagne vineyard. The serene, contemporary interior provides the perfect foil to sample dishes that waver between France and further afield (often Japan) with a personal spin: furikake and caviar aperitif snacks, crab and yuzu kosho smoked tomato, croaker in kaffir lime… The produce comes from a cottage garden, bee hives and cherry-picked suppliers. A creative score that is flanked by a
