La Table du Fleuve

The brainchild of Thierry and Julien Verrat, Charentes recipes acquire a distinctly bistronomic edge here in a menu that keeps pace with the seasons. For example, duck terrine dotted with foie gras and dried fruit chutney; soufflé of zander, spinach and crayfish butter; or a lemon meringue pie to die for. On fine days, meals are served alfresco on the patio. A genuinely inviting cocoon devoted to good food and good cheer.
