With a great location, this is the place to savor regional specialties like cassoulet. The locals love it, which speaks volumes here in the heart of cassoulet country.
Walk past the pubs and bars on this narrow alley for the best crêperie in Perpignan. Owned by a young couple from Brittany, it prepares authentic buckwheat crêpes with a modern twist. Top picks include a galette stuffed with endive, smoked duck, pine nuts, cheese, and a honey-cream sauce, which can be gobbled down in the colorful, casual dining room.
Stéphane Tournié's elegant restaurant next to the Grand Hôtel de l'Opéra is a perennial favorite. Inspired by the seasons, the food is gastronomical local fare with added nouvelle touches. Intimate rooms and a covered terrace around a little pond give it an undeniable allure, though some may find the grand flourishes—glass ceilings and mammoth chandeliers—a little too, well, operatic. If you're looking for something a little lower-key, consider Tournié's bistro, La Cantine de l'Opera on Allée Jean Jauré.
This bustling bistro has been serving locally sourced regional dishes for more than 30 years—way before farm-to-table was a thing. The house specialties include dishes like roasted Pyrenees trout with shallot confit and the founder's own pain perdu, with vanilla ice cream. If you forgot to book, ask if you can wait for a table with a drink at the bistro's hip salon next door.
This eatery is a popular choice, especially when sunny weather encourages taking a seat on the terrace, overlooking the square below. The cuisine varies with the seasons, the markets, and the humor of the chef, but everything is homemade and reasonably priced.
A good-value menu and superb fish dishes are the reasons for this restaurant's excellent reputation. Chef-owner Georges Bermond's house specialties—which change seasonally—include pot-au-feu of the sea. Although the traditional setting could use some spark, the warm service and correcte (fair) bill make up for any old-fashioned ambience.
In a quiet mountain village just outside Prades, chef Gilles Bascou's semisecret gourmand restaurant serves classic five-course meals that locals swear by. The ambience is refined yet relaxed, and the market-inspired menu changes seasonally.
Nestled beneath the château of Roquefère, an unspoiled village fleuri in the Cabardés region of the Montagne Noire, this regional favorite dishes up amazing steaks and bottomless plates of homemade pâté and charcuterie. Cooked over wood fires, many of the meat-centered dishes are accompanied by mushrooms picked from nearby mountains by the genial chef. This place is worth visiting as much for its rustic charm as for its great food. In warm weather, ask for a table on the terrace amid hills cloaked with oak and chestnut trees.
