21/09/2024: At Coloquintes, in Aubenas, we don't dine, we explore. This small establishment, set like a secret at the foot of the Ardèche, invites you on a gastronomic expedition where every bite is an adventure. Here, everything exudes authenticity, from the elegant simplicity of the place to the discreet smile of the staff. But it’s on the plate that the odyssey really begins. The products, drawn from the heart of the terroir, are a tribute to the soil, the seasons and the hands that cultivate them. We let ourselves be surprised by the power of the flavors, by the precision of the cooking which reveals, without ever betraying, the natural richness of each ingredient. Vegetables, the humble heroes of this feast, are taken to heights that were thought to be reserved for great meats and fish. And everything is accompanied by a harmony that only the respectful silence of the room can appreciate. At Coloquintes, we remember that eating is an act of gratitude, a way of saying thank you to the earth that nourishes us. We leave there like we come back from a trip, a little lighter, a little wiser.
