My wife and I had Le Menu a la Decouverte D'un Terroir which features seven courses built around the melanosporum truffle of Jarnac. It is very difficult to describe our favorite course since each was very unique, excellently prepared and beautifully presented. My wife's favorite was L’émulsion de fromage de chèvre frais,noisettes torréfiées et truffe fraîche which was very young goat cheese whipped with saltwater. This is an exceptionally creative, unusual and tasty dish. I loved each dish but the La coquille Saint-Jacques crue marinée à la truffe noire,panacotta de topinambours, betterave Chioggia which was very thinly sliced scallops and beet root served over a slice of pannacota was exceptional. Le snickers chocolat caramel et éclats de truffe may have looked like a Snickers but, believe me, you will find nothing approaching this masterpiece in a candy counter. Service was very good although we were left without wine at one point and since our bottle was kept elsewhere during the meal, we could not pour it ourselves. This was, however, a minor inconvenience. All in all, this was one of the most exceptional meals we have ever had.
