La Robe

The word “robe” in French is used in oenology to describe the colour and appearance of a wine – an apt name for this restaurant in an attractive old house nestled in the centre of Montaigu, given the careful attention it pays to its wine pairings. Chef Xavier Giraudet, who has worked in many Michelin-starred restaurants, demonstrates his skills in the kitchen here, using local, seasonal ingredients (sometimes even from his family’s kitchen garden) and precise cooking methods to create dishes full of flavour and with a distinctly contemporary feel. The restaurant’s old beams and contemporary furnishings and paintings combine to give it a cosy atmosphere.
