Belle Campagne. Bordeaux
Even though Bordeaux is filled to the brim with places to eat and where everyone indeed eats, there are not too many places to truly enjoy while eating, especially with children. It’s not like the locals don’t like children, but you can’t say that the French love to see children in public spaces, and for this reason „Belle Campagne” is a true gem not just in terms of food, but also the attitude. But, I’ll be honest, even if they didn’t like children, we would still show up, because this is one of the few restaurants that offers truly seasonal, truly local, truly delicious and fresh food. The menu changes every day or at least couple of time a week, everything is made from locally grown and produced products (not further than 250km away) and the food – it is magnificent. Fries with aioli, steak with béarnaise sauce, duck hearts with pureed peas, seasonal vegetables of the day. The dishes are small and the philosophy is to share. The favourite discovery for the kids was the cucumber and apple juice, but for me – everything I tasted. Booking is a must.
