Le Cordina sur Dijon

05/08/2026: We ate cream brûlée with rum and profiteroles with iceream. They were both delicious. But cream brûlée was my favorite.

02/08/2026: ​I usually strictly avoid dining in high-traffic tourist squares—they so often end up being overpriced and underwhelming traps. However, this charming spot proved to be a wonderful exception to my rule! We were so pleasantly surprised by how vibrant yet welcoming the atmosphere was, and more importantly, how genuinely reasonable the prices were for the location. ​The standout star of our meal was definitely the main fish dish—cooked to absolute perfection, flaky, delicate, and packed with clear, fresh flavors. The wine-infused pasta was equally fantastic, rich in depth and full of character that elevated the entire plate. To top it all off, the Café Gourmand was the ultimate sweet ending; the mini Crème Brûlée was velvety smooth with that perfect, satisfying crackly caramelized sugar top. ​The only minor letdown of the table was my burger, which was a bit hit-or-miss and didn't quite reach the impressive heights of the other dishes. But given how exceptional the seafood, pasta, and desserts were, it barely dampened our experience. ​If you are nearby and looking for a lovely meal without the typical tourist-trap markup, don't walk past this place. Highly recommended for the fish, the pasta, and a proper French dessert treat!
