The Hotel Chais Monnet and Spa combines rich heritage and modernity. Jazz bar, gourmet restaurant and contemporary brasserie, are some of the assets of this magnificent hotel. Thomas Galharague has chosen to focus on the “Distillery”, the brewery. “La Distillerie” offers a tasty and gourmet menu in a friendly atmosphere. In the kitchen, chefs Marc-Antoine Lepage and Ugo Motreff honor specialties that are firmly rooted in regional tradition and accessible to all. On the program, a series of starters such as snails, pâté en croute, trout gravlax, then lobster linguine, French rib of beef from Metzger or the mythical Blanquette de Veau. A 5-star service with a discreet team available to customers.
Thomas Galharague: chef Ugo Motreff’s dessert trolley, a moment of poetry and for me, a star dessert, the famous rum or cognac baba with the bottle next to it to wash down the baba as you wish.
