Le Passage Brasserie sur Vaison-La-Romaine

21/10/2025: We had one of our best dinners of the month in Provence at Bistro Panoramique tonight. This is one of two restaurants at this location in the old medieval town part of Vaison La Romaine. The room was beautifully mid century modern with a fire roaring in a stove making the restaurant amazingly comfortable on a cold rainy night. There’s a great view better seen doing the day. The food was brilliant and served very competently without hovering. An amuse bouche came immediately consisting of a thick mushroom soup with a cheeses cookie and a seeded cracker. Starters were a cassoulette of prawns in a seafood broth with a stuffed ravioli. Main course was slow roasted chicken with mushrooms and truffles and fish of the day - hake - in a citrus sauce over risotto. Desserts were a deconstructed Black Forest cake and a pineapple with passion fruit mousse and coconut cream. A very nice and reasonable wine list and help choosing a vin blanc cote du Rhône to accompany the meal. Overall a meal to remember. And the restaurant is just steps away from a parking lot. We were sorry we are leaving tomorrow or we’d be back.
