Le Charlemagne
PERNAND-VERGELESSESA relaxing, contemporary place at the heart of Burgundy’s vineyard
In the heart of Burgundy, in Pernand-Vergelesses, your restaurant Le Charlemagne opens its doors to lovers of food and travel. Rudy Villien and Léa Matéos are the owners of Le Charlemagne. He's a Michelin-starred chef in the kitchen; she's irreplaceable behind the scenes. Together, they offer you a sincere, flavoursome four-handed score. The Charlemagne restaurant is just like them: warm, refined and unpretentious. During the day, at lunchtime, you'll never tire of the panoramic view over the vineyards and the Corton Charlemagne hill. Change with the seasons and colours for a gastronomic journey... In the evening, at dinner time, the lighting becomes softer, revealing a subdued atmosphere, as if out of time. It's the soothing harmony of the halo of light above your table, the wonderfully enveloping armchairs and the elegant, uncluttered furniture. This is where the discovery of your Menu begins, your culinary journey, at the crossroads of Burgundy and the lands of Asia in delicate touches. Le Charlemagne invites you to lunch or dinner "on the other side of the mirror" by choosing one of the guest tables set up in the kitchen. For more privacy, the small private lounge is available for your lunches, dinners with family, friends or seminars. - Chef's Signature Menu (7 courses - Lunch and Dinner): 165€/person - Discovery Menu (5 courses - Lunch and Dinner): €125/person - Sensation Menu (4 courses - Lunch only on Saturday and Sunday): 95€/person
Day after day, Rudy Villien cultivates the art of creating a cuisine that is both rooted in Burgundy and open to the far-flung lands of Asia. It's a subtle alchemy of comforting flavours and surprisingly tangy notes, a gastronomic stroll through local produce and little-known condiments. There are so many surprises for your taste buds to discover as you savour each dish.
