Marie-Christine and Didier Clément have successfully enhanced Sologne’s pastoral universe in their historic regional gourmet landmark thanks to some fabulous restoration work. The Offard house was entrusted with creating an incredible natural, ‘rural’ interior out of “stone cardboard”, an 18C handicraft about which chef Didier Clément is passionate. The food embodies a gourmet interpretation of the countryside, courtesy of the chef’s research into forgotten herbs and spices: grains of paradise, sand leek, angelica and lemon thyme. Clément signs a patriotic lineup, free of unnecessary frills an

The couple at the head of this pleasant inn in a small village near Valençay can be relied upon to whip up amazing food; everything is homemade and the chef favours regional ingredients to concoct his delicate, toothsome recipes. Served in a charming rustic interior or alfresco on the flower-decked terrace in fine weather. The establishment’s success and excellent value for money mean that bookings are essential.

With its beams painted "Berrichon blue", this is an extremely appealing spot. You are in for a culinary treat, safe in the hands of a chef who draws inspiration from tradition and premium ingredients, producing dishes such as foie gras poached in Reuilly or hay-steamed pigeon. In fine weather, be sure to reserve a table on the terrace.

Au 14 Février

Japan boasts two museums devoted to the cartoonist Raymond Peynet, who created the famous lovers in 1942, immortalised by a postage stamp. Some of his Japanese admirers thus naturally chose the small village of Saint Valentin to celebrate February 14 in culinary style. In a stripped-back, contemporary interior, graced with posters and lithographs by Peynet, a 100% Japanese brigade conjures up a subtle new take on modern Gallic fare, scattered with delicate Japanese notes.

Chambord asparagus and Sologne strawberries, freshwater fish like pike, catfish and carp, game in season: chef Maxime Valleye, with stints at Georges Blanc and in his parents’ establishment, sings an ode to his region. Even the restaurant’s name, which is evocative of a birch tree, is in tune with Sologne’s forests. Maxime carefully crafts seasonal dishes steeped in classical overtones: pork, confit of egg yolk, spinach and goat’s cheese crumble. The classy, stylish interior of this contemporary bistro sports varnished wooden tables and vintage incandescent light bulbs. Most of the tipples on

A father-and-son team is behind this brasserie-style restaurant with a smart, polished interior and a hint of Scandinavian flair. The father is a seasoned professional who has been cooking since he was 15 (his CV includes the Grand Hôtel du Lion d'Or in Romorantin and the Domaine des Dryades); his son provides enthusiastic service front of house. Farm produce and fish from Brittany are elevated by the sure touch of the chef: pan-fried snails and octopus, root vegetables and black garlic jus; sesame and dried lime biscuit, crumble with toasted sesame oil.

Chef Adam Blondeau is a trained pastry chef originally from Châteauroux. After time abroad and having garnered valuable experience in some of the world's top kitchens, he is now back on home turf. He may be young, but he already has several strings to his bow: skilled at fermenting (eg pickles), using herbs grown in his own garden, and playfully referencing the terroir. He doesn't cut corners when it comes to the quality of the ingredients in his pared-down dishes, a case in point being his Chambord venison. His cooking is ingredient-led, right down to single-ingredient dishes.
