Sophisticated Cuisine in a Peaceful Setting…read more Le Clos Pierrepont is located 10 miles North of Draguignan, near the very scenic village of Chateaudouble. You must go walk the narrow streets of Chateaudouble before or after your meal at Le Clos! The restaurant is set in a nice older house recently renovated; there is also a hotel but I have not checked the rooms. The cuisine is very sophisticated yet quite approachable: the food is recognizable and the prices adequate. We sat outside on what has been the hottest day of the year so far - or at least it seemed to be. There was a pleasant breeze that made it comfortable. We had drinks first while we perused the menu. There is a good choice including 4 prix fixe menus ranging from 30 to 75 Euros. The wine list is extensive with selections from reasonable to expensive. Two of us chose the Menu Saveur at 42 Euros while the 3rd guest went with a single entrée, in that case the Ris de Veau. We were all offered a mise en bouche (an oyster with meat). The ris de veau was excellent (I know: I stole a piece from my wife's plate). For appetizers, the menu offered a tomatoe-based dish which was original and tasty or a Porcelet, also excellent. The main dishes were the fish (Maigre) served in filet in a delicious sauce and the duck in a blackcurrant reduction. Both were quite tasty and unique though the duck was a bit firm. The Menu Saveur included all three desserts - for each person. See photo. We had a bottle of Rose - Chateau des Sarrins which was very smooth. The service was good and professional, a bit on the slow side but not frustratingly so. Overall, it was probably the best meal we have had so far during this trip. We will be back.

The menu prepared wasn't particularly appealing to me but the stars of the lunch were the Seabass and chocolate mousse cake....absolutely phenomenal. We were offered an artichoke with anchovies and the anchovy overpowered the artichoke. The chicory tart with bleu cheese walnuts and bacon was mildly successful. The service was outstanding and the Red wine was another winner. I looked at their dinner menu and they have some lovely pre fixe meals for $32 and $40 euro which looked wonderful.

Then she shrugged her shoulders and poured my friend's wine , cobweb and all , into another glass . We asked for the manager.
