Recommended by the locals, this restaurant is located in a narrow street, off the beaten path and housed in an elegant and medieval building. The menu provides the typical cassoulet, but also other dishes such as the ‘parillada’ which is made with fresh fish and is definitely worth a try.
Dining
The Aude region offers an incredible variety of wines to be accompanied by special traditional dishes. Traditional local food is usually heavy, such as the Cassoulet, the famous specialty – a mixture of haricots and duck and pork. There are over fifty restaurants within the Cité walls, with great views all around. Those who love Mediterranean food will also find heaps of everything to fulfil their appetite. Expect great food!
