Brasserie le Chai sur Monestier

30/06/2026: As soon as you arrive near this establishment, nestled in the countryside, you can't help but be struck by its magic. Lush greenery abounds and is meticulously maintained (for the needs of the golf course, among other things). A large pond has provided a home for a family of Canada geese, and the historic buildings boast exquisite architecture. This privileged location exudes tranquility. After a short walk from the parking lot, we strolled past a good portion of the buildings to reach the restaurant entrance. The welcome was impeccable. We discovered a large, bright dining room lined with bay windows, offering ample space between the tables. Throughout the meal, the service was exceptionally professional, flawless, and discreet, befitting the Michelin star it has held for many years. The pace of the service was perfect. We opted for the seven-course tasting menu, which also included the welcome bites, amuse-bouche, petits fours, and the small homemade chocolate served with coffee. Not forgetting to mention that the seventh course, dessert, consists of a pre-dessert and the dessert itself. With each course, a new work of art is presented to our eyes and then our palates. This menu is simply phenomenal. But how could we not highlight one of the chef's signature dishes, the "oyster...caviar" combination? A pure marvel, freshness, texture, exceptional flavors—this dish alone is worth the trip. We experienced a truly great gastronomic moment. Bravo and thank you, Chef, and to your team.
