They provide excellence at a level that I didn't find anywhere else in years by taking care of the most minuscule detail you can think about. The restaurant (and we then discovered is also a luxury B&B) is located at about 20 minutes from Carcassonne. So some people may think it's not worth it to drive to there... Wrong! It's absolutely worth it! The place is lovely. And even if it's beautiful by its own, it also provides a nice view of the city. If that was not already enough reason, you find out very soon that that's just the beginning.... the owner welcomed us at the entrance and guided us to the great room with a majestic fireplace. We sat on the sofa facing the fire and she served us a couple of glasses of Blanquette de Limoux (the first sparkling wine of the world!) and some olive and nuts. After that, she accompanied us to the table. The menu she prepared for us (based on our preferences since she already asked us beforehand by email) was: .- Amuse-bouche of crab with lemon caviar pearls: fantastic. The balance of the crab with the acidic lemon caviar (not real caviar) was simply about perfect. .- Baby scallops and avocado wrapped in a cabbage leaf and black truffle with mushroom cream: beautiful as well as delicious creation. The cream was something of another world. I think you could even serve it as a soup by itself. The wrap delivered really delicate flavors that were accentuated by the black truffle. .- Pan roasted salmon with vegetables and port reduced sauce: Salmon was super fresh and the sauce was also superb. Perfect crispy skin. Interestingly enough, even if the salmon was excellent for me the star of the dish was the vegetables. They were delicately cooked and provided freshness in each bite. I could eat an entire plate of them. Pure perfection! .- Chocolate pudding with passion fruit, mint and white chocolate. Lemon sorbet as a side: excellent desert for closing such an enjoyable and lovely night. The chocolate with the the passion fruit and white delivered nice and balanced flavors and texture. The mint provided some freshness so you want to come back and get another bite. Finally, the lemon sorbet cleansed your palette in the most delightful way. At the end of the dinner, the chef approached us to ensure everything was right and that we enjoyed the dinner. He is only 21 years old!!! I have been in One Michelin Star restaurant that were not as good as him! If he can put together dishes like these ones with only 21 years old, I can't wait to see what this chef will offer us in the future. In summary, we cannot wait to come back. This time, not only for dinner but also to stay at their luxury B&B!

My family (party of 7) came for lunch and we had the course meal. We sat outside and surrounded by so much of the Carcassone architecture. Wonderful backdrops for pictures. We were worried when we walked in because there was no one else there... but that's probably because we came before they started serving lunch... My goodness, everything we ate was so delicious! Like most places in Europe, the course meals take a little while and are not quick...so make sure you have time. The quality, service, price, and presentation were just amazing. We were all WOWed! I spoke little French, which helped... but then we ended up having a waiter who spoke English. Definitely made the experience much more memorable. If you are in Carcassone, stop here for a meal!! You will not be disappointed!

Filled up by the time we left at 9. I had the duck, and my compatriots had the steak with foie gras, vapeur (sea bass we think) and a child's prix fixe meal including salad, sweet potato fries (apparently rare in France), a hamburger patty, and scoop of ice cream. All of the food, including our foie gras/plum jam and leek/trout appetizers, was beautifully plated and balanced. It helped that my sister-- a fluent French speaker-- asked questions about the menu and helped us order, and she and the waiter seemed to get along. But I suspect that anyone with reasonable restaurant etiquette would get along swimmingly with this fine crew. Everything was great, and what finally sealed the deal was the chef peeking out to see if we were enjoying each course of the meal-- at the very end he came to correct our inaccurate guess on how to incorporate the rum pipette into our baba au rhum dessert: you inject it directly into the cake, not pouring over the top.
