Rue des Bahutiers, right in the heart of Saint-Pierre, a tiny French bistronomy dining room with a single 29 € starter-main-dessert menu. We pushed the door of Berthus one Thursday evening with part of the team. Verdict on an address that doesn’t try to overdo it, and scores points for exactly that.

Three addresses in the heart of Bordeaux, Neapolitan pizzas with melt-in-the-mouth dough, Puglian burrata, fresh truffle pasta and organic wines: Monzù plays out its transalpine roots between Grands-Hommes, Sainte-Catherine and Chartrons.

Facing the Porte Cailhau, Le Gueuleton plays out aged côte de bœuf, aligot, bone marrow and South-West wines in a rustic-bistro setting. A tested and validated address for those who want to eat well without overthinking.
