At the top end, you cannot beat the restaurants at Hostellerie Crillon le Brave and Le Bastide de Gorde. But you will pay for the privilege, so save the experience for one of your big blowouts. I’ve found through experience that you can eat with such extravagance only once or twice in a week-long vacation – if you want to be fit to do anything else! Monti was born and raised in nearby Bédouin. His cuisine makes adventurous use of local specialties. In the restaurant – a series of stone-vaulted chambers under a 16th-century village house – we ate pink, pan-roasted foie gras in a sweet wine sauce, shoulder of wild boar roasted and stewed and cinnamon crème brûlée with roasted figs. If you think you can manage seven courses, try the chef’s sampling menu at euro 64. The Bistro is slightly more casual – decorated in bright Provençal colors. Both are open for dinner only and offer dining under the stars in good weather.
