Chambre d'hôtes SOPHORA - Les Clés des Lys

Located on a pedestrian street, this restaurant pays homage to hunting and culinary competitions: the chef, a finalist in the Lièvre à la Royale Championship, is also a fan of pâté en croûte. Meat dominates the menu – oreiller de la belle Aurore; fillet of guinea fowl, grilled green beans, shiso leaf tempura and offal sauce, not to mention the carefully prepared desserts. Small terrace.

In the centre of Fontainebleau, Fuumi is the teppanyaki outpost of starred chef Kunihisa Goto. Authentic Japanese fare, crafted directly in front of diners, particularly if you are lucky enough to nab one of the counter seats that command the best view of the culinary performance. The banquet of gyozas, ramen and okonomiyaki, the house specialty, illustrates the infinite care lavished on each dish. The attractively priced Bento lineup at lunchtime (teishoku menu), with a soup, small sides and a choice of main course, is just the ticket for a delicious snack. Friendly, buzzy vibe. Bookings high

This Auberge alongside the former Route Nationale 6 is really inviting on account of its quaint interior decorated with various agricultural items and its rustic-style furnishings. When it comes to the food, tradition is the name of the game: country-style calf's head; lamb kidney fricassee; tournedos with morels, and, on top of that, service with a smile. An enjoyable mealtime experience. Pleasant terrace to the rear.
