Aux Terrasses

Top choice in Burgundy


Chef Jean-Michel Carrette carries forth his father's legacy at this Michelin-starred restaurant, taking classic ingredients like Charolais beef, Bresse poultry and produce from small local producers and transforming them into works of art. The lunchtime menu du marché offers superb value; alternatively, indulge in a multicourse dinner with wine pairings and trundle off to sleep at the hotel next door.
