Le Bistrot
Le Bistrot by Lou Calen awaits, open every day, and basking under a large air-conditioned glass ceiling, opening onto a beautiful shaded terrace. On the menu, the chef revisits the great classics of the French bistro. In the evening, meat lovers will appreciate the tenderness of the cuts matured on site, selected from local producers. In fine weather, flame-grilled cooking takes over and dials up the intensity of the flavours of every dish. Every Sunday, this tasty cuisine transforms into a plentiful, generous and friendly brunch.
The Bistrot is closed from February 3rd to 23th.
Tasty cuisine… from here and everywhere!
Under the watchful eye of Benoit Witz, the chef composes a short but fresh menu, full of quality local products. Inspired by French, Italian and Thai cuisine, he regularly updates the menu to surprise his regulars with new recipes. From Tuesday to Saturday, evenings only, matured meats are available à la carte : served from 500g, just-seared and accompanied by a seasonal garnish.
The art of flame-grilled cooking
In spring and summer, the wood-fired oven spits and crackles on the terrace, enjoying this element of masterful cooking. This is a treat for the senses! Matured meats and fresh fish are cooked up with with smoky tones and caramelised notes. To accompany these delicious mains, the chef has created a unique barbecue sauce, inspired by the history of Lou Calen estate: a subtle blend of pastis, maple syrup and beer, enhanced with a few ingredients that he still keeps secret!.
Sunday brunch
Please join us every Sunday for a brunch from 12pm to 3pm. Our passionate chefs commit to delivering a high diversity of delicious meals: salt-crusted sea bream, flame-cooked local meats, wheel of truffle risotto… And lot of suggestions by a generous all-you-can eat local buffet.
