Fodor's Expert Review L'Essentiel
$$$$
Dijon
Dinner
Situated just on the edge of Dijon's town center, this under-the-radar gem lures well-versed locals thanks to the chef's skillful use of market-driven produce. The menu brims with dishes such as bream à la plancha with cripsy polenta or pan-fried Corton pigeon served with braised salsify and Tonka bean sauce. Dishes steer away from the hearty Burgundian classics and focus on a modern lighter style of cuisine.
