The Palais Gallien restaurant offers a fine selection of dishes for lunch and dinner. Three menus are available: a 5- or 7-chapter lunch menu and a 7- or 9-chapter dinner menu.
The lunch menu consists of canapés, a starter, a main course, a dessert and mignardises. Elaborated from tasty recipes, the dishes offered for your tasting are subtly accommodated according to the chef's inspiration to achieve high-end gustatory refinement.
The evening menu offers a tasting in 7 or 9 chapters. Dishes composed of traditional products, sometimes brought up to date, such as parsnips or beet, revisit sometimes forgotten flavors with great finesse. Thanks to original taste combinations, the chef honors local products and creates novelty by mixing ingredients in surprising ways. For example, scallops and butternut form a duo that's as unexpected as it is succulent, while the traditional clementine is suddenly sublimated by delicate and rare aromatic herbs such as cordifole and other glazed fresh market garden herbs.
To accompany the delicate flavor of the dishes, the wine list is carefully composed to match the different menus. Carefully prepared by an experienced oenologist, the wine selection offers you a high quality choice to accompany your gastronomic experience. You can choose to be guided in your choices by the precious advice of our oenology specialist or trust your own expertise to select the best wines from your favorite grape varieties.
Whichever way you choose, you can be sure to find the perfect wine for your meal.
