Christian Etienne

$$$$, French, Avignon


Fodor's Review:

Known as the pope of Avignon cooking, Christian Etienne is ensconced in a 12th-century building next to the Palais des Papes with a fabulous terrace overlooking the theatrical square. Eating here is tantamount to a religious experience, especially if you opt for the EUR 60 tomato menu, available only from June-September, whose seven courses range from the apparently simple (tomato tartare) to the extravagant (foie gras with tomato petals and tomato jus with orange). If you're seeking to satisfy sophisticated tastes on a budget, the prix fixe lunch menu for EUR 30 could be the answer to your prayers.
