Bistronmic excellence from the auvergne region

Adrien Descouls is delighted to announce the forthcoming opening of his bistro Le Basalte on Monday 29 April 2024.

This new culinary showcase, nestled in the picturesque Auvergne countryside and within the prestigious Origines establishment, promises an experience where tradition and culinary innovation meet.

Le Basalte is more than just a restaurant; it's an invitation to explore the authenticity and culinary excellence of the Auvergne.

Under the guidance of Mathieu, who has been promoted to head of the kitchen after shining as chef de partie at Origines, you are promised a memorable experience.

A selective wine lsit

Chief wine waiter Vincent Gardarin has carefully selected a range of regional and discovery wines, designed to go perfectly with each dish and appeal to wine lovers.

These cheerful, mischievous wines are the perfect accompaniment to every dish and will delight wine lovers.

Our pastry

Four pastry shops that never stop changing, inviting you to discover new sensations with each visit.

The vision of chef Adrien Descouls

"At BASALTE, I invite you to discover my vision of our terroir, based on sharing, conviviality and the fruits of the labour of our local artisans - from producers, freshwater fishermen, market gardeners, beekeepers, breeders and winegrowers to our cheese producers. What I want you to experience at BASALTE is a simple, emotionally-charged cuisine, deeply rooted in its terroir. A shared culinary experience, a moment of generosity."
