Loiseau des Ducs

Housed in the 16C Hôtel de Talmay, a listed historical monument close to the Palais des Ducs, this restaurant is part of the Loiseau Group. Chef Iulian Fistos, former right-hand man to Patrick Bertron in Saulieu, channels his talent into upholding the gastronomical spirit of Burgundy and Bernard Loiseau's classics, with a distinctly contemporary approach: Dijon snails in parsley sauce, garlic purée, celery tempura and watercress soup; Charolais beef fillet, carrot ravioli and beef bone marrow, hay jus. There is a fine selection of wines by the glass and a good-value lunch menu.
