Just a stone's throw from the Château de Brissac nestles an address you'd almost like to keep to yourself. It's a haven for gourmets and gourmands, and home to the epicurean tandem of Tatiana and Gwenaëlle, whose home-cooked, traditional cuisine is second to none. In the kitchen, these two talented Chefs work wonders with fresh, local produce as their standard-bearers. Their philosophy? Good food at affordable prices, as demonstrated by the lunchtime menu featuring three starters, three main courses and three desserts. The latter includes parsnip cream with haddock, shrimp risotto and seasonal fruit pavlova. In the evenings, the menu is more elaborate and changes with the seasons, offering a host of surprises: escargot puff pastry with garlic butter, low-temperature veal medallion with braised vegetables, pear poached in Aubance... As for the cellar, the emphasis is on quality rather than quantity, and on local winemakers. In a cosy setting, regulars and visitors alike enjoy each visit.
