Auberge du pilori - Avignonet-Lauragais

Permanent establishment for 6 months. I'm a neighbor, so I live in the village of Avignon and Lauragais. but happy to have informed you

We stopped at this out of the way restaurant when we moored our canal boat so we could ride into town to have a look around. Having spotted the restaurant we thought we might as well stop for some lunch but we weren't expecting much. To say we were surprised is an understatement. Both our meals were excellent and our hostess was very helpful. We decided then and there that on our return on the Midi canal we would drop in for dinner and we even more impressed with the evening fare. Both of us had lovely tasty meals, a nice wine and we were well looked after by the chef/host. I just wish they would advertise a bit more to get some more people into their excellent out of the way restaurant.

A big road, a sign indicating a restaurant, and we stop there. And the charm works!!Everything starts with the welcome!!A smiling young woman, with a good southern accent and a great smile welcomes us and lets us choose the table that we like best. on the map side, that dishes from the region (cassoulets, gizzard salad, foie gras, etc...)The waitress informs us that everything is done home and we let ourselves be tempted by the cassoulet. a real treat!!!!!!The dessert, home, like everything else, called the lemon pie of gaetan (the chef)? was just at TOP!!Bref, a great place, or it makes good food and stop for a few hours to share good moments with family and or, to digest we are going to take a walk along the channel of the noon that is located at 800m!!!

On the roadside, we pass in front without stopping us. Finally in front of the little choice offered in the city, we turn around and install. hyper friendly welcome, complete menu at 13 € extremely correct (wine and coffee included!), very nice atmosphere and calm setting. A nice surprise step.

Dessert papi brossard as dessert, cassoulet non gratiner,but super acceuil. the decor is a little old, and a little expensive for the whole service, against the magret and the salads are good
