Auberge du Vieux Gachet

"The sprawling terrace, which commands a superlative view of the fairytale Gacherie château, seems to float above the River Erdre. A peaceful, refreshing venue set in the heart of unspoiled countryside. Even better, the floor-to-ceiling windows of the dining room offer the same fantastic view when the weather is less suited to alfresco dining. The owner-chef, Walter Lescot, works only with ingredients he himself loves: Scandinavian gravlax of salmon, lemon cream; loin of cod, celery and chorizo risotto and a piquillos sauce. The tart of citrus fruit and lime sorbet is delicate, flavoursome and fruity – an ideal conclusion to your meal. With over 350 references, the wine cellar adds the final cherry to this appetising portrait." - Michelin Inspector
