The best local and typical Perigordine lunch/ food. Only open at lunch as in Perigord Noir that is when you eat the most. Take the menu of the day and sit back enjoy, you need a few hours, but they are well spent. Great atmosphere , always full (reservation needed) 10 - 12 mins from the Gite, you will not need dinner, or breakfast ....or lunch, the following day :-) a delightful local experience.
