Former chef of the Château d'Audrieu*****, Olivier Barbarin has set himself a new challenge by moving to the prefecture, where he is experimenting with simpler but no less masterful cuisine, expressing all his experience and good taste. In a decor of his own devising, with volcanic stone reminiscent of his Auvergne origins, he offers a range of excellent lunch menus and tasting menus in the evening, set to a background of rock music and very pleasant service. These include a creamy bouillabaisse with saffron emulsion, cod served cold in a tangy tomato coulis, rare fillet of beef with eggplant and zucchini pressé, crème brûlée with camembert and a peach declension with yuzu sorbet. A well-balanced cellar, with conventional and natural references.
