Welcome to "Restaurant Le Saint Jacques"
May we introduce ourselves. We originate from the south of the Netherlands, more specifically the Province of Limburg. This region, similar to the Dordogne in France, offers a good quality of life. And this is what we were looking for our objectives and high standards. And you might ask what our primary desire is? To enjoy a restaurant with a rustic ambiance which offered an exquisite choice of gastronomic delights. Well that is our passion: to create a truly delicious and splendid cuisine with just a hint of our Limburg heritage.
The Bergerac region is often called the gateway to the Périgord. When raising the "gastronomy" subject, it is usually associated with a particular region. Périgord stands in high regard in this field. Traditional products, such as the Bergerac truffles, walnuts, strawberries, and the well-known rich specialties from goose and duck, are largely responsible for this fame. All ingredients we like to use in our kitchen (see our menu card). All these good and nice things you can enjoy together with a glass of Bergerac wine.
With it's 13 different kinds of appellations there are enough choices to please your taste.
Who doesn't know Cyrano de Bergerac? He was a French dramatist and duelist born in Paris, who is now best remembered for the many works of fiction which have been woven around his life story, most notably the play by Edmond Rostand which bears his name.
It's still an honour to celebrate the tradition every year with The Table de Cyrano in July and one month later of Roxanne. They celebrate it mostly with eating the good food of the area.
Bergerac is also a stop for pilgrims on their way to Santiago de Compastela. In the old part of the city, just a few steps from our restaurant, you will find the church Saint Jacques, surrounded by lovely old buildings, little shops and flower parks.
Bon appétit
