A succulent demi-pigeon, roasted to a precise medium-rare and paired with a rich duxelles of mushrooms, serves as the centerpiece of the gastronomic experience at Côteaux & Fourchettes. Chef Cyril Glémot’s menu is an ode to the Vaucluse region, where the bounty of the Rhône Valley is treated with a sophisticated, creative touch. The foie gras de canard au naturel, accompanied by a compotée of figs and slivered almonds, offers a luxurious, buttery texture that melts on the tongue. Aroma is defined by the scent of house-made bread and the herbal notes of the surrounding vineyards. Technique is evident in the pavé of cod, which is pan-seared on its skin to achieve a crisp, golden finish while the interior remains moist and translucent. The flavor profile is a masterclass in balance, where the acidity of seasonal fruits cuts through the richness of the proteins. This Bib Gourmand destination seamlessly integrates a world-class wine cellar with a cuisine that is both deeply rooted and elegantly modern.
