La Promenade - Maison Dallais

La Promenade - Maison Dallais, family-run and one-Michelin-star, stands at the entrance of Le Petit-Pressigny in the Touraine countryside. It traces an uninterrupted culinary heritage since 1960, with three generations succeeded by a fourth. The kitchen marries classical technique and modern creativity; a legendary wine cellar and an awarded sommelier guide pairings. An authentic, ancestral house offers refined, discreet luxury and a serene rural atmosphere; the décor evokes family tradition and French country comfort, with intimate dining, two on-site guest rooms and a wellness space for a combined dining-and-stay experience. Seasonal, inventive French gastronomy blends modernity and tradition with a terroir-first philosophy: menus change with arrivals and celebrate local producers — dairy, cheeses, vegetables, freshwater fish, charcuterie and artisanal partners — and regional cheeses such as Sainte-Maure de Touraine, Valençay and Pouligny Saint‑Pierre. Chef Fabrice Dallais trained in pastry and worked at Guy Savoy and with Pierre Gagnaire before returning to the family restaurant; his son Clément, also trained in pastry, worked at Georges Blanc and Les Crayères and joined the brigade in 2021, reinforcing the house’s pastry and chocolate expertise. Specialties include Lièvre à la Royale du Sénateur "Couteau" (seasonal, game); bouillon of carrots with broad beans, savory and lard; Northern pike in potato crust with crayfish butter; Paris‑Brest in éclair form.
