Restaurant de Tourrel

It was within the walls of this handsome mansion that Charles Gounod played the first bars of his opera, Mireille, to the Provençal author Frédéric Mistral, who wrote the libretto. In a flavoursome echo, the chef plays a gourmet melody which delves into the regional pantry (fish from Grau-du-Roi, pork from Mont Ventoux and lamb from Crau), to deftly craft legible dishes that ooze with hunger-obliterating appeal. Fine wine list, particularly from the Alpilles and the Rhône Valley. The rooftop terrace is heavenly!

• Dining room inside a 17th-century mansion tied to composer Charles Gounod, who played the opening bars of Mireille here for Frédéric Mistral.
• The main meal is served as a table d’hôtes, communal seating in a friendly, stone-walled room.
• Rooftop terrace above, with views over Saint-Rémy’s rooftops and a more casual menu.

Regional products Michelin explicitly highlights as recurring anchors in the cooking:

• Fish from Grau-du-Roi.
• Trout from Isle-sur-la-Sorgue.
• Mont Ventoux pork.
• Lamb from la Crau.

A modern Provençal tasting menu served at a communal table d’hôtes in a 17th-century mansion in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. The kitchen builds plates from the regional pantry, including fish from Grau-du-Roi, trout from Isle-sur-la-Sorgue, Mont Ventoux pork, and lamb from la Crau.

A rooftop terrace sits above the dining room, with a more casual line-up and views over the village skyline.
