Issue No. 18

Roquefort cheese, can only be called Roquefort
if its matured in the caves of Rouquefort-sur-
Soulzon as it has been for 1000 years
Whilst it may look humble from the outside,
Au Jeu De Paume is set in a beautifully
restored old building with an open fire,
beamed ceilings and a lovely terraced
courtyard. You can enjoy all the local
specialities here and watch the larger meat
cuts being cooked on an open grill. It’s
thoroughly atmospheric and their two or
three course ‘formule’ start at just €12-15.

Finally, if you fancy getting away from the
hustle and bustle of Millau, then why not take
a 7 km detour to the beautiful village of
Peyre. The only restaurant in the village, it
sits above the river with great views across
the countryside and you can see the Millau
viaduct in the distance too. It’s reasonably
basic fodder but good quality, good value for
money and with a welcoming feel.
