Description

The restaurant occupies a prime position in the heart of this medieval town, strewn with old stone buildings and half-timbered houses. Maxime, a local lad, and his wife Patricia, who hails from Lima, graciously welcome diners into their updated establishment. The dishes are made with fresh ingredients treated respectfully to mine their intrinsic flavours and sometimes spiced up with the odd South American touch (ceviche with tigre de leche, coconut milk) and dishes to share (platters of cold meat, croquetas and cheese).
