Gastronomic inn on the banks of the Canal du Midi.
On the banks of the Canal du Midi, at the crossroads of the Aude and Hérault departments, Bruno Plana and Laurent Hund's gourmet inn is nestled in a former roadmender's house. These chefs offer a new take on Mediterranean cuisine. We tried the Lou Del Mitan menu, and what a delight it was: Caramelized Pumpkin Tarte Tatin followed by a Croustillant of Guinea Fowl Effiloché and Chestnut Splinters, Citrus Juice and Butternut Squash Cream. The plates are beautiful, and the cooking and juices are perfectly executed. A fine table!

Trésor inexploré hautement recommandé à visiter avant que sa notoriété ne double ses prix. Comme ce serait tout à fait raisonnable dans n’importe quelle ville d’Europe.
(Avis d'origine)
Just gets better. Both service and food are significantly above the majority of restaurants in the area, at a surprisingly competitive price. The senior staff have experience in fine dining and Michellin starred restaurants, and this shows clearly in their attention to detail. Carefully thought through, skilfully prepared dishes with sophisticated flavours and textures served by staff who clearly have silver service training. Not at all pompous or formal, but welcoming and friendly as the best and most confident restaurants should be. In a lovely position on the canal and surrounded by open countryside, but moments from the main highway.
Highly recommended undiscovered treasure to visit before its notoriety doubles its prices. As would be quite reasonable in any city in Europe.
