Food & wine
"The table is the ideal place for relaxation and conviviality"
Bernard Loiseau, French Cook, Businessman (1951 - 2003)
At Brin de cocagne, a particular care is taken with the dishes offered; simple, balanced, full of flavours and as well as with the table decoration. Indeed, Elisabeth likes to create according to the seasons, beautiful decorations as the art of the table has been her trade in the past.
Wine, one of our passions, is honored at our guest table, particularly the Gaillac and Côtes du Tarn. It will be a pleasure to share this moment with you and to show you these treasures.
