  1. A

    Les 5 Sens

    Chef Thierry Baucher, one of France’s meilleurs ouvriers (top chefs), reveals his southwestern origins in specialities including cassoulet and foie gras, but goes contemporary-Mediterranean in his gastronomic dishes, such as butternut-squash ravioli with escargots. The dining room is refreshingly unfussy, vaguely French Colonial with rattan and carved wood, and service impeccable.

  2. B

    Christian Etienne

    Avignon’s top table rests on its laurels and could stand some redecorating, but the refined Provençal cuisine remains exceptional, most notably the summertime-only starter-to-dessert tomato menu. Reservations essential.
