L'Auberge Saint Jean

The couple at the helm of this contemporary-style inn nestled on the banks of the River Dordogne are passionate about what they do. A selection of set menus showcases chef Thomas L'Hérisson's knack for precisely combining ingredients in a modern and quietly creative style. The shredded poultry with sweet spices and leek, a spicy jus, butternut squash and tangy mushrooms, chicken liver terrine or matured meagre, smoked potato espuma and a sauce reminiscent of a beurre noisette and sherry hollandaise are the perfect reflection of the chef's personality. The fine wine list – with some 550 labels – has something for everyone. Hostess Manuela lavishes diners with attentive service.
