Restaurants in Perigueux
Eating is a major occupation in Périgueux. Stores that sell truffles and foie gras abound, but one of the best known is L’Espace du Sixième Sens, 6 pl. Saint Silain (tel. 05-53-09-24-29), where visitors can also eat. Fans of the delectable mushroom come from far and wide, especially during the Truffle Festival (Fête de la Truffe; www.perigueux-city.com/fete-de-la-truffe-a-perigueux.html) one day in January.

Still going strong and delivering innovative takes on local market food, this makes a good choice if you are just a little tired of duck and truffles and want to find a more contemporary (although almost always still rich) menu.
