The best bistros and brasseries Midi-Toulousain

With an explicit name, you will not be surprised to discover here a bistronomic address turned towards nectars. This bistro is nestled in the northern part of the city, on the other side of the bridge of August 22, 1944 and the cathedral of Sainte-Cécile. Daniel Pestre is at the head of a business with a pretty terrace and a gourmet cuisine. Daniel, best sommelier in France in 2004, and his team will help you discover the hidden treasures of the Gaillac vineyard - and elsewhere - with the Domaine d'Escausses, the Enclos des Roses or the Domaine des Terrisse. As for the plates, they are adorned with a thousand flavours and colours, for example: pumpkin and brown tatin with hazelnut caramel, piece of duck breast piqué with pink ginger, trout fillet and steamed prawns, Liège chocolate from the Chef....

With its pretty flowered terrace, the "L'Epicerie" Bistro immediately catches the eye and arouses the curiosity of passers-by, who stroll through this historic district of the city. As soon as the weather is fine, you can take a seat for a lunch break or a dinner of character. In an elegant, chic and warm atmosphere, you will enjoy a delicious meal and will be particularly satisfied if you are a lover of fine cuisine. Fish and seafood have a beautiful place, to be discovered in parillada with prawns in particular, but also in scallops with ceps. A side dish that can be found in fried duck breast and if you prefer homemade fries, Guy also offers them. Gascon trio of meat on skewers, veal head, butcher's piece, fresh liver tournedos: the proposals are perfect. The pastries are homemade. The place is full of charm, the staff is welcoming and the service is impeccable despite the large number of visitors. Victim of its success, the establishment is always full, which is why it is preferable to book before coming, especially on weekends.

If you wish to eat a little in retreat, to dominate the city, this is the address you need in Albi! A franchouillarde cuisine, in a Parisian bistro spirit, created by Marc-Olivier and Yannick, the owners of the places. The top room has been completely renovated in grey and beige tones, and furniture burned. A sober and traditional interior, where you can feel good in couples like family or colleagues. The chef offers a very well prepared and expertly seasoned brasserie kitchen. A card that gives envy, which is very provided: cod dos mango sauce and green lemon, or burger to duck, cantal and pear blast. The map is rich and also offers pizzas and salads. Finally, the dessert of the desserts and the grout of pears will fill your meal. Add to this a nice wine card, the friendly and cheerful smiles of the staff, and a room completely privatized for your group meals, and the tour is played!
