Fodor's Expert Review La Chassagnette

Arles
French
Fodor's Choice
Reputedly the original registered "organic" restaurant in Provence, this sophisticated yet comfortable spot, 12 km (7½ miles) south of Arles at the entrance of the Camargue, is fetchingly designed and has a dining area that extends outdoors, where large family-style picnic tables await under a wooden-slate canopy overlooking the extensive gardens. Using ingredients that are grown right on the property, innovative master chef Armand Arnal serves only prix-fixe menus that are a refreshing, though not inexpensive, mix of modern and classic French country cuisine.
