Hercule Poireau

"At the foot of Cathédrale St Front, a restaurant named after the fictional detective. What would his legendary little grey cells have made of the 16C dining room with its pale stone vaulted ceiling? He would no doubt have detected the sincerity behind the deliciously revamped recipes based on produce from the exceptional terroir of the Dordogne: terrine of semi-cooked foie gras and passion fruit jelly or pan-fried duck breast and pears poached in red wine." - Michelin Inspector

The restaurant, located in a quiet side street in the very picturesque city of Perigreaux, offers a great menu with unbeatable value/money proportion - and it’s cited by Michelin. At lunch time, it was very busy. As such, we had to wait a fair bit even just to receive menus. At least 20 minutes. When we asked, we got told that “there are no more menus”. So the start wasn’t the best. But the food was worth the wait. For around 25 euros (drinks excluded), we had a choice of appetizer (veggies were very fresh) and a main (we went for puree and meat). The final price, under 60 euros for two (including drinks) was extremely fair for the ambiance and quality. So the only downside is to be ready to wait at lunch.

Very good food, Service was perfect and the ambience is cosy. Just a bit loud when full.

Like the name of restaurant, as we are the fans of Hercule Poirot! And, we really enjoyed the lunch there today! The location is closed to the cathedral, it’s given a bit mystery when you find it is in an medieval-time alley. We had a set menu of the restaurant specialty and a set menu of Périgueux, glasses of monbazillac wine, and fruit dessert. The food quality is good, the food presentation is beautiful! For people who don’t know much French like us, the staff are helpful and friendly, we really appreciate it. All in all then, I recommend this lovely restaurant .
