Le
Café des Arts,
30 boulevard Victor-Hugo. Closed Tuesdays. tel 0490920850
This place
stayed authentic because of the simple fact that in the 60’s, when everybody
transformed his restaurant in a sort of “bar américain”, nothing of that
kind happened. Today they harvest their reward, just like in Van Gogh times.
Walls are covered with paintings from local artists, the food is really nothing
special, but that’s not the point here! . Menus 20 €
and 23.50 €. On Fridays
they serve aioli. Plat du jour 10-11.50 €.
Closed begin November and February.

Simple carte juggling with the daily market on a sympathetic terrace, this is
one of the secrets of this hearty small bistro. You need to reserve. All around

welcomed here as in apartment. Menu for 23.50 €. Original finds in the plats like
escalope de noix de ris de veau poelées au sot-y-laisse, bouchées à la reine
au filet de boeuf, the parfait de foies de volaille et confit d’oignons,
emince de veau au citron or the compote de rhubarbe avec son coulis de
framboise, pyramide croustillante au chocolat fondant! …

In his house, centre town, this chef goes right to the core of his art with an
exceptional touch. A very good address where you can have a regal for 24.50 €:
asperges vertes croquantes et mousseline parfumée, unctuous galette
croustillante de pommes de terre, gaillarde de brandade de morue and an
irresistible rhubarb tart. Any other grandma’s plat that the hyper-talented chef will
have the envy to cook, mixing the savors of his country. Another menu for 36 €.

Became one of St.Remy’s top restaurants. Charming house with a nice terrace. Are you ready for a little “
folie” of great class?? An epurated cuisine of great class, sober and rigorous,
singing with the market savours. The décor looks as if it came out of a
decoration magazine. Light lunch for 20 €
only served for lunch during the
week. Otherwise count 28.50 to 48 € for the menus.
Raviole de brousse de brebis et jambon cru au pistou, galette de pommes de terre
et truffe de Haute Provence au noix de Saint-Jacques grilles, carré d’agneau
à l’ail roussi et pommes de terre à la fleur de sel, very refined desserts
like the croustillant de de sesame noir or the millefeuillle de fraises et
citron vert. Stop!! I’m getting hungry….
