In the Frontonnais, Eric Barret Castan founded the restaurant C ici l'Épicurie. A gourmet restaurant in the small village of Bondigoux where the priority is to promote good products. For Eric, it's the pleasure of pleasing, and he is our guest in the kitchen of France Bleu Occitanie.
A l’Epicuriethe atmosphere is vintage, it takes us back to the 60s/70s. The setting is simple, the spirit good-natured et “It’s not because it’s old that it’s not good, quite the contrary!” Eric Barret Castan prone the art of receiving, the art of giving pleasure. Always passionate about cooking, self-taught at heart, he joined forces with Youg to create the establishment.
They are keen to offer dishes prepared using fresh, quality productscarefully selected. But the offer does not stop there, beyond the quality, it is the price which is also taken care of. At the Epicurie, you can eat lunch during the week: a menu at €990starter, main course, dessert and drink. A way to differentiate yourself from the competition in surrounding towns, but above all a way to allow those who have low incomes to be able to eat at a restaurant table and enjoy themselves.
“I prefer to have only €2 or €3 margin, and an occupied chair, than an empty chair.”
