Auberge Etchegorry

Frommer's Review

Its windows overlook a verdant patch of lawn that's so green, you might for a moment imagine you've entered a rustic countryside inn. Dark paneling, deep colors, hanging hams and pigtails of garlic, and lacy curtains emulate the Basque country, the corner of southwestern France adjacent to Spain. Victor Hugo and Chateaubriand ate here in centuries past. The cramped tables are a drawback, but not much of one in this rich atmosphere. The menu includes a roster of such specialties as cassoulet, magret (breast) of duckling, beef filet with peppercorns, a peppery omelet known as pipérades, cocottes of mussels, and terrines or pan-fried slices of foie gras.
