Restaurant with terrace both cellar and wine bar in Tautavel offering dishes based on local and seasonal products.
El silex is not only a restaurant, it is also a wine cellar and bar (and a rock...). Thierry at the helm of this place of sharing and conviviality since 2010, comes from very far away... from Vingrau. This child of the country with Rabelaisian tendencies will really amaze you. "I grew up in the kitchen amid the smells between my mother and grandmother," he says. The tone is set! The menu is short, because of the local and seasonal produce, and often organic. In winter in the dining room or in summer on the large adjoining shaded terrace (arranged in a guinguette style with its summer cuisine), Thierry treats you to his fideua with Pals rice and lobster, his Freginat de Baixas with beef whiting or his bluefin tuna from the Mediterranean. "I only serve healthy products that respect animal life," he insists. As for wines, there are juices from here and elsewhere, small producers often, rare and very affordable pearls since the wines are at the estate price with a corkage fee of 6€. We told you a restaurant, a cellar and a wine bar, but also an atmosphere, a true spirit of generosity in the heart of a village that lives all year round.
