Aveyron is a food lover…

 

This country is full of local products : from vine to cheeses, from meat to pastries, Aveyron is a food lover.
To imperatively discover: the aligot made of sweet potatoes and fresh tome, and the estofinado, a sumptuous version of the “brandade de morue”, a salt cod and potato mash.
But there is more: warm “farçous” and “tripoux”, “fouace” or spit cakes, and the list is far from complete…

From the rural inn with a single menu to a restaurant recognized in the “Michelin Guide”, meals are festive, and all guests practice the “art’ of eating and well-drinking.

A word, a story

The aligot : this specialty of Aveyron is part of those dishes that convey a strong image of heat and friendliness.

In addition, a real staging, due to the necessity for this dish to be a success, to turn the preparation and hold it up with a big stick before reaching the ideal unctuosity.
A work necessitating an incredible dexterity.

A mix, whole together, of strength, tenacity but also of sharpness in the art of airing and softening this particular purée.
