Les Jardins Sothys
Les Jardins Sothys is a gourmet restaurant housed in a converted barn overlooking a lake in Corrèze. It serves Mediterranean-inspired dishes prepared with ingredients sourced from local producers, offering refined cuisine.
Chef Jean-Michel Salcedo began his culinary training at age 14 at the Carcassonne hotel school, influenced by his Catalan grandmother's cooking techniques. These early influences shaped his cooking style, which was later enriched through international experience.
The restaurant blends regional Corrèze specialties with modern cooking methods and influences from the chef's travels to the Caribbean. Diners experience local tradition alongside international culinary inspiration in each dish.
The restaurant opens Wednesday through Sunday for lunch between April and June, with extended service including dinner on Fridays and Saturdays. It's worth checking opening times in advance, as hours may vary depending on the season.
The restaurant partners with Fromagerie Duroux to develop special recipes highlighting local cheese productions in innovative ways. This collaboration shows how traditional local products are creatively integrated into modern cooking.
