Some things never go out of fashion… This quintessential Sologne posthouse with a half-timbered, pink brick façade and stone walls that date back to the 17C, boasts former guests of the likes of none other than Mistinguett and Maurice Chevalier. Take a seat in this timeless setting, depicted by massive oak beams, Gien earthenware and crystal glassware and admire the grounds planted with century-old trees. The enticingly entitled concise menu and tasting menu mingle classical roots with a hint of modernity. While seafood is a firm fixture (splendid tartare of red mullet in a gutsy jus), the chef avows a weakness for red meat and game in particular. A former sauce chef, he coats his pressed duck in an intense sauce, spiked with pear and zest of confit bergamot. The wine cellar, home to some exceptional vintages, will knock the socks off some of the most blasé wine buffs!
