Le Trinquet sur Souillac

02/09/2024: We went - without a reservation but with fingers crossed - to Au bistrot de la halle for our last night on holiday. We have had some really good meals so the bar was set quite high. We looked online at about 40 restaurants in a 30min drive radius and settled on this one. The outside has a sweet little terrace and the inside looks a bit like an office (with interesting art and square ceiling tiles) however we only noticed it as we were some of the first to arrive. Once the place filled, which it did quickly, there was a nice atmosphere. The menu had something for everyone. We had burrata, entrecote steak, truffle pasta, the kids had chicken and we all had way too much dessert! The food was excellent. Our fussy children tried everything, and liked it all. It is such a brilliant restaurant and the food despite sounding simple has clever flavours and pairings. Could you find something more picturesque? Probably. Would it have food as good as la halle? I very much doubt it. Such a gem of a restaurant, we wish we were on holiday for longer so we could come back!

26/08/2024: A last minute evening meal... They welcomed us with pleasure and the meal was very good. Good little address in Souillac with fresh produce in a friendly setting. Thank you and we look forward to coming back home.
