Le Pétrocore
"The Petrocorri were a Gallic people who settled in the Dordogne – in naming his restaurant after them, chef Malo Tual (a misleadingly Breton name!) invokes his roots. After stints elsewhere in France (Relais de la Poste, Oustau de Baumanière) and Canada, he joined forces with his partner Morgane Guider to create this appealing place in the historical heart of Périgueux, beneath century-old arcades. There is a two-pronged concept, with a bargain bistro-style lunch, and more elevated fine dining cuisine comprising several courses in the evening. The contemporary, meticulously plated food takes local ingredients and tweaks them ever so slightly, eg porc noir du Périgord, pork sauce, crispy pig's trotter, black beans and garlic condiment." - Michelin Inspector
