Bistro L'Atelier - Menu

I had read that many chefs were opening bistros and cafes to complement their high end counterparts, this was one example I had read about.

We found the Bistro L'Atelier in Saignon for a lovely lunch sat outside in the shade. We had the lovely buffet style meal. It's very charming and there's a great spread. Very enjoyable! Fresh vegetables and lots of choice, french hams and cheeses, fish, tomato salads, aioli, potato salad, courgettes and some more exotic dishes too, it was a delight! Good homemade food. Excellent!

Un déjeuner dans ce petit restaurant découvert grace à trip advisor et les bons avis...Je recommande sans problème.Une salle au décor arty, on ne s'appelle pas "l'atelier" pour rien.Un accueil que j'adore par la patronne cuisinière épicière serveuse plongeuse et que sais je encore...peu de choix mais des produits frais. Ce midi soupe de poule et petits farcis...On tente....une vraie soupe de poule un régal puis des petits farcis aussi. Une copieuse assiette!Un café moyen (!?)Nous reviendrons et recommandons mais avertirons sur la carte (très) courte. View menu

We visited Saignon in November, when pretty much everything was closed for lunch. A local lady walking along beckoned us to follow her to her favourite restaurant, and we entered Bistro L'Atelier. We sat at one of four tables and chatted with Shannon, the cook/waitress/genius who served us some wonderful shepherd's pie. My wife had the lamb pie, and I the beef with local mushrooms. Both were fantastic. The atmosphere was beautiful, the poached pears delightful, the wine plentiful and cheap, and the coffee was the best we had in France. One of our best memories of France. Interestingly, the woman who owned the whole building was from our hometown, Calgary!

We stayed in the are for a few weeks, and found ourselves returning to Shannons place every week for lunch. The food is so hearty and good, dessert is always jummy and the wine is great too. Good price too! Think homemade food style with a touch of both American and Norwegian cuisine. Everything is locally produced and in season. We had lam, veal, quail, sausages...JUM! The first strawberries arrived when we were there too, served on top of a lemon cake, it was perfect. It's only four tables inside, so call ahead for lunch to make sure you get a table (it's only open for lunch). Ambiance is great, the small tables outside in the sun is cozy for a glass of wine or coffee. Would go again, for...

Das Essen ist super lecker! Alles selbstgemacht und äusserst gut zubereitet. Am Mittag gibt es ein feines Antipasti/Salat Buffet.Fragt man jedoch nach etwas mehr Brot (2 Scheiben Baguette pro Person), so wird das nicht so gerne nachgereicht. Die dünnen Scheiben demonstrieren das mit Ausdruck, schade ...Die Atmosphäre muss man mögen. Es ist alles etwas sehr handgestrickt. Man kann hier auch Kosmetikprodukte kaufen. Es liegen Zeitschriften zum Ansehen herum. Die Küche ist im Gastraum integriert, entsprechend riecht es nach Fritteuse und Gebratenem. Empfehlug: unbedingt draussen sitzen. Denn der Dunstabzug ist die Türe zum WC und nicht wirklich effizient ...Kann man herausen sitzen, ist das Bis... View menu
