1. L'Entrée du Jardin
$$ | |Set in the heart of the town, this is Cadillac's top gastronomic address, serving regional specialties prepared with imagination and flair. Inspired takes on the French classics feature fresh local produce, fish, and game. Look for dishes like creamy watercress and asparagus soup with mushrooms and escargots, lamprey eel braised in wine à la Bordelaise, artisan-made charcuterie with country pâté, and a selection of scrumptious pastries from the in-house pastry chef all served with the top local vintages. Prix-fixe lunch menus (€13.50, €15.50) are an outstanding bargain on weekdays, and a pretty terrace delights in the warmer months.

2. Le Chapon Fin
$$$$ | |Some say you haven't really been to Bordeaux if you haven't been to Le Chapon Fin—an epicurean indulgence, housed in one of Bordeaux's most historically esteemed establishments, where guests once included wealthy wine merchants, elite transatlantic travelers, and cultural icons such as Sarah Bernhardt and Toulouse-Lautrec. Founded in 1825, this was one of the first 33 restaurants crowned by Michelin in 1933. Reopened in 1987, guests are now served from chef Nicolas Nguyen Van Hai's refined menu in the extraordinary, original rococo grotto salle (room). Expect offerings like civet of hare (a kingly, 500-year-old dish of whole jackrabbit cut into pieces and then cooked for days in fine wine thickened with blood and liver). The wine list, not surprisingly, boasts the region's best vintages.

3. Auberge des Officiers
$ | |Dine smack dab in Blaye's historic center in the 17th-century citadel's officer's mess hall, where a warm welcome and a pleasantly unpretentious setting await you. A tantalizing menu of French classic dishes made with whatever is fresh and in season includes favorites like housemade foie gras, copious salads, entrecôte de boeuf with crispy fries, and an ample wine list featuring the local favorites. Three-course prix-fixe menus at lunch and dinner, including wine, are some of the best deals in town.

4. Baud et Millet
$$$ | |With a cellar full of fromage—and a vast wine stock that you peruse in lieu of a list—Baud et Millet is a good place to get acquainted with some of the 246 different French cheeses that Charles de Gaulle famously blamed for making this such a complex, and thus difficult, country to govern. Order from the cheese buffet and serve yourself from the downstairs cellar, or start with a cherry-tomato-and-Roquefort clafoutis, then move on to Camembert flambéed in Calvados. You must buzz to gain entry, and that's just the first element of the unique experience here. Genuine stinky-cheese lovers should know some cheeses here aren't as potent as can be had elsewhere in France.
19 rue Huguerie, Bordeaux, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, 33000, France05–56–79–05–77Known For
- Cellar stocked with more than 100 cheeses
- Excellent wines
- Ham and cheese tapas platters for sharing

$$$ | |Set in an ideal spot on the ledge road between Blaye and Bourg nestling up to the banks of the Gironde, this small family run restaurant in a pretty old stone house (which also has two guest rooms) focuses on traditional French fare made with farm-fresh ingredients. The restaurant is open on weekends and must be booked in advance.

7. La Tupina
$$$$ | |Cuisine de terroir is served up at this classic restaurant on one of Bordeaux's oldest streets.

You can also dine or shop at his épicerie, Le Comestible (No. 3), which is lined with bistro tables and jars of foie gras, cassoulet, and other regional sundries. Copies of this business-savvy chef's southwestern cuisine cookbook are sold at the épicerie.
