In Les Puys-style country fare with
a dash of Paris, Chef Emmanuel Hodencq reveals his secret garden in town... in the heart of Old Clermont. Just steps from the lava cathedral, this warm, renowned dining establishment brings out the best of Auvergne’s local products. The “Return from the Market”, ”Savours“ and ”Impromptu“ menus are veritable no-holds-barred compositions crafted by a contemporary artist of cuisine, a blend of precision and inventiveness. Reading the food and wine list is like reciting genuine works of poetry!
On Saturday morning, the Chef passes his know-how on to students, 4 persons maximum, who create a full menu. Here you’ll find an abundance of new ideas and a real talent for renewal even if "the Paris-Brest my childhood remains my “best of”.
