A restaurant in the heart of the Périgord Noir

La Borie restaurant, located in Saint-Geniès, Dordogne, welcomes visitors and locals alike to a setting perfect for a gourmet break in the heart of the Périgord Noir. Associated with the Logis Hôtel La Borie, the establishment offers traditional cuisine that showcases regional recipes and products prized in Périgord gastronomy.

Since spring 2026, Marine and Aurélien, the new owners, have continued running this hotel-restaurant with a focus on hospitality, home-style cooking, and value for money. The restaurant caters to both travelers and vacationers exploring the villages, castles, and prehistoric sites of the Dordogne.

Home-style cooking with Périgord influences

The menu features specialties from the Périgord region, with starters, main courses, and desserts that emphasize accessible and generous cuisine. Homemade duck foie gras is among the signature offerings, alongside platters of Périgord charcuterie and cabécou, a goat cheese associated with the gastronomy of Southwest France.

Lovers of traditional cuisine can enjoy dishes such as confit and grilled duck leg, pan-fried meat with a goat cheese sauce, or a fish dish depending on availability. These dishes are accompanied by seasonal side dishes, including potatoes cooked in duck fat and vegetables.

The menu also includes more plant-based options, such as vegan breaded bites served with rice and red beans. This variety caters to different tastes, whether the meal is a quick stop during a day of sightseeing or a leisurely meal.

Products and recipes inspired by local produce

Local gastronomy occupies an important place in the culinary identity of La Borie. Duck, foie gras, walnuts, regional cheeses and charcuterie products are among the flavors associated with the Périgord terroir.

The starters offer a chance to discover different flavor combinations, such as a salad with walnuts, smoked duck breast and foie gras, or a soft-boiled egg with a porcini mushroom cream sauce. These ingredients reflect the agricultural and forestry resources of the region, where walnuts, mushrooms, and livestock products contribute to the reputation of the local cuisine.

Desserts complete the meal with sweet treats such as chocolate fondant or walnut cake, particularly in keeping with the culinary traditions of the Périgord region. As the menu is subject to change, available dishes should be confirmed directly with the restaurant.
