Dining
Bistrot Saveurs
British chef Simon Scott worked his way from London to Provence, before setting up shop here in the Tarn département. The vivid red façade leads diners into a vibrant and cosy pop-inspired decor. This eclectic chef and master craftsman works exclusively with good-quality (local) ingredients, in a bid to serve his guests precise, colourful and tasty dishes that change regularly according to the market stalls. This Bistrot des Saveurs is certainly aptly named!
WebsiteLa Part des Anges
The market-fresh menu demonstrates deep respect for the seasons and a desire to highlight the work of local producers. Healthy appetites are encouraged and appreciated and the front-of-house team is pleasantly attentive. Its enduring popularity with the locals says it all!
WebsiteLes Mets d'Adélaïde
Adelaide and her cooking have taken up abode in the old village school, whose playground doubles as a summer patio. The chef enjoys adding spices and aromatic herbs from distant lands to her culinary repertory. Smiling welcome.
