In the heart of the Perigord region, the "Jardin d'Epicure" can pride itself with a well chosen name… 
This pleasant restaurant is located in an old farm building and has a beautiful terrace well worth a stop.
A young talented Chef, who has learnt with the
most famous names of French Cuisine, Eric Jung seems to have
fallen for this place that he has entirely decorated with bright
luminous colours.
His cuisine bears witness to his various stops in the East and
South of France. His compositions are as a result often surprising,
and the combinations with local specialties are a true success.
As for the service, it is serious and discreet, verging on perfection.
You will get a smiling and sympathetic welcome, reflecting
Eric and Nathalie Jung's personalities.
The ideal gourmet menu
composed by the Chef is a festival of different flavours; we
particularly liked the sautéd scallops from Erquy, with
creamy truffle polenta and the Manjari chocolate cake, balsamico
caramel and passion fruit sorbet…
The choice of wine is adequate,
and in this regional atmosphere, nothing will disturb your delicious
voyage through local cuisine.
The menu changes according to seasons and the market.
The menu below is only an example.
