Bordeaux gastronomy

Duck, foie gras, oysters and the wines of Bordeaux — plus my favourite restaurants in the city, from traditional bistros to signature cuisine.

Bordeaux is the world capital of wine, but also one of the most exciting gastronomic regions of France. The local cuisine is built on seasonal produce and simple yet impeccably prepared dishes.

Duck, foie gras, fresh Atlantic seafood, farmhouse cheeses and, of course, the wines of Bordeaux — which accompany almost every lunch and dinner — are especially prized here.

The city is renowned both for its traditional bistros and for its contemporary gastronomy: from cosy family restaurants to the signature cuisine of young chefs.

In short, dear friends, arriving in Bordeaux you step straight into a real gastronomic tour!
