Le Chardonnay, French bistro in Clermont-Ferrand, France.
Le Chardonnay is a restaurant in a converted historic building on Place Philippe Marcombes in Clermont-Ferrand. It serves seasonal dishes available both indoors and on the terrace, with a menu that changes based on market ingredients available.
The restaurant came to life when Place Philippe Marcombes was transforming from a quiet square into a dining destination. This change shaped the heart of the city and turned it into a gathering place for visitors.
The restaurant keeps regional taste traditions alive by pairing local ingredients with wines that reflect the Auvergne landscape. Visitors experience the food culture of this area in a living way, without stepping into a museum.
The restaurant opens Tuesday evening, then Wednesday through Saturday for both lunch and dinner, so visitors can plan their meals flexibly. Those who prefer outdoor seating will find a terrace alongside the indoor tables.
The chef creates the menu daily based on fresh market offerings, so returning visitors discover completely new dishes each time. Carefully prepared specialties like truffle-infused foie gras show the craft behind every preparation.
