    •  L'Escapade des Sens isn't just a restaurant.

      In 2020, during the covid-19 closure, they took time out to develop a few products close to their hearts:


      Bees

      L'Escapade des Sens has fifteen beehives in the Thiviers and Nantheuil areas, producing spring honey, acacia honey and summer honey. They use large quantities of it in their recipes to replace white sugar, and in many sauces. They also use it to accompany their cheese platters. 

      You can also find it in their display case at the entrance to the restaurant. Ideal for gourmet gift boxes. 


      Their truffle farm 

      Périgord, the birthplace of the black truffle, is the perfect place to create a truffle farm. They decided to set up their truffle farm close to the restaurant, as an investment in the future, and hope in a few years to be able to introduce our customers to the art of cavage and tasting their own truffles. 

      To this end, they have planted more than 500 truffle trees on suitable land: holm oak, downy oak, cerris oak, hornbeam, pine...  

      Irrigation, truffle wells, pruning, seeding - they're doing everything they can to ensure production in a few years' time. 


      Their aromatic garden 

      Committed to the freshness of their products, they have developed a range of aromatic herbs in their various gardens. This allows them to add a touch of freshness to our plates at the last minute. Lemon thyme, sage, verbena, basil, laurel, dill, fennel, lovage... over 40 different varieties are grown in their gardens all year round. 


      Their walnut oil

      Each year, they harvest several hundred kilos of walnuts from open field walnut trees. After drying and enoisage by us, the kernels are taken to the Moulin de Landry in Chanterac to make their walnut oil.


      Their Pâtés de l'Escapade des Sens

      They have created several types of pâtés, available all year round in their display case at the entrance to their restaurant: 

      • Rabbit pâté with tarragon and Espelette pepper 
      • Pâté with duck foie gras, with a minimum of 40% foie gras wrapped in a thin layer of pâté meat. 
      • Duck rillette 

      Country pâté with Périgord ceps, of course! 


      Jams made by Escapade des Sens

      Every year, depending on the season and the fruit available, they make jams with ripe, seasonal fruit, not too much sugar, lots of flavor and some surprising combinations that will delight you.

    HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! One of the best meals I've had in France - from the excellent, non-intrusive service to the most delicious food. We chose the 3 course menu with ample choices available for entrée, plat principal and dessert. Apart from the exquisite dishes, beautifully presented, the service was well-paced with tasty appetizers on the house served in between courses. This is a restaurant, situated in a lovingly restored building with a large terrace, I will frequent from now on! I also bought some 'huile de noix' and 'miel' (honey) from their store which show-cased an array of products prepared by the restaurant. À L'escapade des sens : merci beaucoup !

    Super resto! I loved this hidden jewel in thivier! Great for all occasion. Fun fact: you can buy a sort of gift card for your loved ones (I got my parents à full course meal and added à bottle for their anniversary !) Cheers!

    A feast for the eyes and a culinary delight as usual. We had the foie gras and the sautéed veal, with the recommended white and red by the maître. Splendid atmosphere, impeccable service. Will of course go back! This is always a delight. Nicolas Cousinou takes cuisine to new heights and never disappoints. I was impressed by the duck and pig trotters starter, an amazing combination. We will of course be back!
