I have read reviews of this restaurant before, one of which said that this is the best restaurant…read morein Gascony. That's a big claim in the land of big eating! We have had one lunch in there. One lunch, but two different set menus. Both were supposed to be technically clever, upmarket posh, if you like. And the wine was certainly at upmarket prices (13EUR for a bottle I buy in my local shop for less than 3EUR). But frankly, both meals were a little disappointing, especially as it was for my wife's birthday. Presentation triumphed over eating pleasure, which in my book is a serious error. There were three menus: 16EUR, 26EUR and a carte at 38EUR. I had the 16EUR menu, and my wife had the 26EUR one. The quality of food for the price was outstanding, though personally I found it rather heavy with olive oil. Before the first item on the menu, we were brought a mise en bouche (appetiser) which was anchovy and some cold asparagus. I am not a fishy person,but I very much enjoyed that. My first course was a tart base supporting tomatoes, garlic and salmon. Very nice - though I'm not normally a fan of salmon. My wife had oven-baked pimentos stuffed with cod. I tried that, and it was delicious, though very rich. My main course was blanquette of veal, with what I think were fir-apple potatoes, and my wife had a large slab of tuna on a bed of a sort of ratatouille and the same potatoes, and topped with some sort of egg soufflé, which she didn't like, but I did, but it was again a very rich dish. For dessert, my cheapie menu had just a sort of yoghurt-y thing, which was a bit like eating boiled egg white; my wife had apple croustade with filo pastry, liberally dosed with armagnac. I'm delighted to say that she preferred my dessert to hers, so we did a swap!! With coffees and a bottle of wine, it was around 58 euros.
