Aux Crus de Bourgogne

The cuisine at Aux Crus de Bourgogne celebrates the rich gastronomic traditions of Burgundy while embracing the broader repertoire of French brasserie cooking. At the heart of the menu are signature Burgundian dishes that showcase the region's renowned culinary heritage. The bœuf bourguignon exemplifies this commitment—a slow-braised masterpiece where tender beef melts into a rich wine sauce, embodying everything that makes this classic dish legendary. Other regional specialties include the gratin de queues d'écrevisses, a luxurious preparation of crayfish tails, and poulet aux morilles, featuring chicken elevated by the earthy complexity of morel mushrooms.

The menu's opening courses pay homage to Burgundian tradition with dishes like escargots de Bourgogne, prepared in the classic style with garlic-parsley butter, and œufs en meurette, poached eggs bathed in a red wine sauce that demonstrates the region's mastery of wine-based preparations. The pâté en croûte and terrine de campagne showcase the kitchen's charcuterie skills, while the pithiviers de gibier—a game-filled pastry—offers a more refined take on traditional preparations.

Beyond Burgundian specialties, the menu features beloved brasserie staples executed with care. Perfectly prepared tartare, rognons de veau for offal enthusiasts, and saucisse purée for those seeking comfort food all find their place alongside the regional dishes. The kitchen's commitment to homemade preparation—with nearly everything made in-house except the puff pastry—ensures consistent quality and authentic flavors.

Desserts maintain the traditional spirit with classics like profiteroles, mousse au chocolat, and an exceptional millefeuille à la crème vanillée. The crêpes Suzette, prepared tableside when available, add a touch of theatrical flair to the dining experience. The pricing structure makes this quality accessible: a €25 lunch menu during weekdays offers excellent value, while the dinner carte, ranging from €45-70, reflects the quality of ingredients and preparation without reaching stratospheric heights.
