Jurançon

Recently read a rave review of the restaurant Chez Ruffet in the SW at Jurançon.
Has anyone dined here?

No, but I'd like to know more. Where is it exactly?

Sheila, looking at the map, you pass Pau, cross the Pau River to get there. Above is Billere.
It is a converted 1800-vintage farmhouse.
Here's a dish that's noted for you.
"He bakes spinach, mascarpone, parmigiano, and cream in a pumkin.
(hm, I do a provençal soup in a pumpkin)
"His food is unusual not weird"...."We won't be surprised if they soon achieve international renown."

......I'm sure you know this, but the
May issue of Grourmet has a nice article
on Juraçon 'a nose for Quality'....
it's about the wines but mentions some
restaurants (not Chez Ruffet).

No, I didn't. I don't read Gourmet usually. I'll look it up if it's this month's?

P.S. The artcle mentions chez Ruffert's savvy, Jurançon-rich wine list
