Not far from Le Mont-Dore, authenticity is guaranteed in this inn, where the dining area was originally a cowshed! Fresh ingredients and copious portions of tasty traditional cuisine, such as tender pork cheeks, home-made potato purÉe and Saint-PourÇain white wine sauce… even if the chef allows himself a few incursions into more contemporary territory, with dishes such as salmon gravlax.
