Le Haut Allier

"The Brun family's hotel-restaurant set in the Gorges de l'Allier looks out over the bridge and the river. With a close connection to their terroir, Clément, the son, in charge in the kitchen; Camille, his partner, who takes care of desserts, and the parents, Philippe and Michelle, elevate this rugged landscape. Through their cuisine, they celebrate the many ingredients to be found in nature in these parts: mushrooms, Auvergne meats and cheeses, salmon from a fish farm in the area, as well as wild plants and flowers. Tuck into a delicious ceviche of trout with Espelette pepper, avocado and tarama condiment, bulgur and lamb sweetbreads with anchovy butter, or the original combination of raspberries and malted barley with a pure malt cream from a local distillery." - Michelin Inspector
