• La Table d'Olivier★ Michelin At Olivier’s Table, Pierre is in the kitchen, while his partner, Fanny, a talented pastry chef, oversees the front-of-house. Normandy-born Pierre has enthusiastically embraced Corrèze, his land of adoption, in this town centre stone house, whose modern furnishings and designer lighting are the epitome of elegant. The repertory, in tune with the zeitgeist and at bargain prices, ticks all the boxes: enticing, polished and colourful. Examples include poached oysters, marinated seabass with citrus fruit and a lemon-vodka sorbet; veal scallop and sweetbread, ravioles of chanterelle mushrooms and bl6.6km
• InspyrationBib On the main road to Brive-la-Gaillarde, you are bound to notice this Corrèze-style building with its characteristic local stone walls and slate roof. You will immediately feel at home inside, thanks to the soothing decor (wooden floors, oak tables, leather- and fabric-upholstered seating) and the beaming smile of the laid-back chef. He cooks by instinct, devising blind menus out of locally sourced ingredients. His delicious dishes, such as Limousin veal belly, smoked beetroot, carrot ketchup and mashed parsnips, lack neither colour nor precision.5.7km
• Monsieur RobertBib An old café in the heart of this pretty village has been turned into a contemporary bistro by the Dutch duo of chef Tom Houdijk and cordial front-of-house manager Sarah van Baardewijk. The bistro vibe (banquettes, long tables, small bar) is in keeping with the menu, in which bistro classics – think beef tartare, sea bass fillet and crème brûlée – get a fresh and precise makeover. Colourful dishes, perfect cooking and meticulous details: a charming and welcoming establishment.14.9km
• Moon In this country house that is typical of the area, chef Nicolas Laval, himself a local man (from Corrèze), has opted for a pared-back contemporary interior decor in a palette of light wood, blue and white, in a nod to the maritime world he so loves. Examples of his dishes include shredded beef cheek, parsnip mousseline, red wine reduction, tarragon; line-caught hake, cauliflower, orange gremolata, grapefruit, citrus vinaigrette. It's pretty creative cuisine, always skilfully executed and the chef's attention to every little detail hits the spot with diners!6.3km
• Le Périgord Nab a table near the imposing fireplace at this solid-wood-panelled restaurant on the edge of town. The house speciality is calf's head with gribiche sauce, a timeless dish that is as delicious as ever. Snails, beef cheek and hot soufflé are equally on point. Rustic cuisine just the way we like it.7.0km
• En Cuisine Since undergoing a complete refurbishment following a fire, the interior of this refined restaurant displays a degree of Scandinavian flair. The dishes are all about finesse and mouth-watering flavours: eg the soft and tender skate wing accompanied by delicious home-made gnocchi flavoured with lemon and flat parsley, enhanced by a delicious sweet and sour sauce. Everything is well executed – compliments to the chef!7.1km
• Le Moulin de L'Imaginaire Born and bred in nearby Brive, the chef is an advocate of hearty traditional cuisine, in which local ingredients abound: fried egg, crispy bacon and new-potato galette; calf's head with ravigote sauce; free-range guinea fowl with carrots; moist walnut cake with crème anglaise. This converted mill on the banks of the Vézère (the old cogs can still be seen beneath the glass floor in the entrance hall) has been renovated and transformed into a contemporary bistro. It also boasts a terrace built over the river, facing the 12C Pont Vieux.13.5km
• La Table du Coly - Manoir d'Hautegente The fine dining restaurant is perfectly in keeping with the rest of the manor.
