You only have to take a look at chef Jérôme Roy’s star-studded CV (Gagnaire and Troisgros, together with a star earned at the Couvent des Minimes at Mane) to know he has an ambitious roadmap! Born in Loches, he has returned to his roots in the company of his spouse, and together they have created this smart, trendy venue. Roy deftly crafts modern, creative fare that keeps pace with the seasons and is meticulously sourced: sautéed scallops in a stock of the scallop frills, dried lime and Aleppo pepper; lamb in provençal herbs, artichoke and samphire; segments of pink grapefruit marinated in spi
WebsiteRustic meets modern in this 18C Touraine building. It boasts a delightful terrace on the Cher and fine cuisine using quality ingredients.
WebsiteThis gourmet bistro, so popular that it is often taken by storm (bookings advisable), is established in a residential neighbourhood near Prébendes garden and flanked by a summer patio. Sincerity depicts the seasonal dishes chalked up on a slate, all of which washed down with delicious Loire wines.
WebsiteRight next to the Halles des Tours, the city's covered market, Olivier Arlot has opened his new restaurant in an elegant and imposing white building. There is an open kitchen, chef's table, central bench, and monumental wine cabinet; the tables are artfully laid and the lounges upstairs are filled with light. In line with today's take on traditional cuisine, the talented chef indulges himself (and us) by showcasing premium ingredients with skill and generosity: veal grenadine rubbed with black pepper, creamy bacon. The impressive wine list holds its own, with over 600 labels.
WebsiteThe name of this bistro pays tribute to a great chef of the last century and celebrates the joys of cooking. The concise menu highlights the changing seasons and regional produce (asparagus, snails, freshwater fish). A flair for seasoning makes for simple and tasty food, such as white asparagus mimosa, broccoli and vadouvan. There are only a few tables, so be sure to book!
WebsiteIn the old town of Tours, a young couple have breathed new life into this 15C building. The interior decor is now a blend of contemporary style and original architecture: whitewashed and brown stucco-clad walls, zellige tiles, white metal chairs with mesh backs and stainless steel tables. Mélanie Cases, formerly a textile product manager with a passion for art, designed the ceramic tableware and linen herself. In the kitchen, Rodolphe Boidron, with a wealth of experience in high-calibre establishments (Le Lucé, Auberge du Bon Laboureur, Les Hautes Roches), skilfully crafts creative, delicious
Julien and Alexandra have poured every ounce of their enthusiasm into successfully wooing local and visiting gourmets. Their seasonal cuisine is a treasure trove of culinary gems. The charm of their old country house, appointed with bare beams, terracotta tiled floors and a fireplace, together with the odd contemporary detail, further adds to the experience!
WebsiteThis pretty little manor house on the outskirts of town has recently been refurbished and modernised, all the way from the decoration to the kitchens, the domain of chef Maximilien Bridier. Taking an enthusiastic approach to high-quality ingredients, he presents elegant, precise dishes with no frills. Without fail, the menu features a vegetarian option. There is a fine selection of wines by the glass, and the service is attentive. Sit out on the terrace on warm days.
