• Bruno★ Michelin A restaurant owes so much to its proprietors… and in this rustic, quintessentially provençal house, which was their family home in the 1920s, the Bruno family continues to uphold a tradition that revolves around truffles. After taking over the helm from their dad Clément, the two brothers – Benjamin in the kitchen and Samuel in the dining room, blend tradition with modernity: green asparagus with truffle-laced caviar or suckling lamb from the Pyrenees. Their truffle-themed set menu (the type of truffles changes with the season) remains a pivotal element of their culinary score. Forthright, ind5.6km
• Le Relais des Moines★ Michelin Nestling in the countryside, this 16C bastide looks out over the Massif des Maures and the village of Les Arcs. Well-hidden and accessible along a path, the interior sports stone vaults, while the patio, shaded by a reed canopy, overlooks lush green scenery. Sébastien Sanjou works hand in hand with local producers to conjure up seasonal provençal-themed recipes, dotted with nods to Southwest France: Axuria suckling lamb, Béarn poultry, Gascon duck. An example of his high-flying skill and devotion to legible food: catch of the day, roasted and served with baby artichokes and olives.5.8km
• La Bastide des Magnans This former silkworm farm near the road serves an appetising score that changes daily in a bid to shine the spotlight on fresh regional produce. The culinary score reflects the attentive, meticulous personality of the chef: scrambled eggs with truffles, fillet of bream, leeks, Swiss chard, green peas and a lobster emulsion with a tempting citrus fruit tart and a vanilla and lime mousse to finish. Intelligent selection of well-priced regional tipples and attentive service, whether on the terrace shaded by plane trees or in one of two dining rooms done up in a chic, contemporary Provençal vein.1.4km
• La Table de Pôl What luck to have a terrace next to the listed Fontaine de la Noix, with the bonus of a bird’s eye view of the show on market days. Inside, the decor is a blend of exposed ceiling beams, hardwood flooring, bare stonework and wood panelling. The chef concocts delicious dishes, often with a notable vegetable component, such as catch of the day with Béarnaise sauce and seasonal vegetables.8.4km
