Au Couvent

Bordeaux


Exposed stone walls, vintage fireplace and windowsills dotted with flower pots add instant charm to this backstreet address run by the talented Marine. Sinful dishes on the menu – 'les péchés' means 'sins' in French – include temptations such as artichoke carpaccio in a truffle-laced dressing, chicken and peanut donuts and mini burgers. Sunday brunch is a supremely jovial, stylish affair. Reserve online.
