A warm welcome

As soon as we arrived at the Adequatee, we are immediately welcomed warmly by the room team. Our server of the day, smiling and pleasant, directs us to our table and presents the formula of the day as well as the suggestions of the chief. Studying the menu, my sidekick and I decide to ask the manager about certain dishes that we don't know. Our host's explanations are clear and intelligible and allow us to make our choices with complete peace of mind.

Hospitality is good… Eating is just as good

For the aperitif, our tandem lets itself be tempted by veal miniettes, a total discovery. These are served to us sliced and breaded, and from the first bites, we can feel the work of the kitchen team.

The breading provides crisp, the pepper enhances taste, and a subtle touch of acidity completes our tasting of this dish which will not leave indifferent person. Accompanied by a glass of white wine, always in moderation and in compliance with the highway code, the aperitif allows us to project following the meal.

You are a meat lover, but do you know the local star, the Limousin cow?

The "Limousine" is a rustic French cattle breed originating from Limousin. Very recognizable with its brown dress, you are bound to come across them when you arrive in the Limousin. Its reputation is well established, very appreciated for its meat, it is one of the best that you will find in France. So what could be better than tasting this meat in a traditional restaurant nearly Limoges.

For the entrance, we opt for the prawn ravioli and let's break away from our culinary habits with calf's head revisited. The ravioli is thin, the crayfish are firm, in a word, a success.

Calf sweetbreads, served with a porcini mushroom sauce and his Risotto, remains in line with the dishes tasted beforehand. In short, the dishes are delicious, well presented and served in a time lapse which can be perfectly suited to workers constrained by their professional imperatives.
