Made with ducks bred outdoors and fed on whole corn, Michel Monteil's whole duck foie gras is guaranteed without additives or preservatives. Finely seasoned with the fleur de sel of Guérande and pepper, it is a foie gras from the Quercy! Gold Medal Agricultural Competition.
Rillons confit au vin de Vouvray served with white Montlouis sur Loire cuvée Opale 2016 Wine
The candied lunch Rillons are bits of shoulder deboned and deboned grilled in a cast iron pot, flavored with white Vouvray and cooked in their own juice.

A cooked dish made from poultry, zucchini, carrots, mushrooms, with rice, steamed potatoes or tagliatelle. Sot-l’y-laisse, as French people know, is the oyster of a chicken, the meat along the backbone that many people miss.
