 <\/div>\n

For lovers of traditional<\/strong> cuisine with a taste of the land, Vichy<\/strong> offers a multitude of options. The Brasserie des Artistes<\/strong><\/em><\/a> is one of those gems<\/strong>, built in 1897<\/strong>, at that time housed a vintage caf\u00e9<\/strong><\/em>. Since the opening of the Opera<\/strong> in 1901<\/strong>, this caf\u00e9<\/strong><\/em>, located opposite, already welcomed many customers<\/strong> and artists<\/strong> after the shows<\/strong>. Thereafter, from 1921<\/strong> this caf\u00e9<\/strong><\/em> was transformed into an elegant Art Deco<\/strong><\/em> brasserie<\/em>. We deeply recommend you to admire its authentic and bygone decoration<\/strong> of another time, that has already charmed artists<\/strong> and customers<\/strong> of all generations, takes us to the Vichy<\/strong> of the Roaring Twenties <\/strong><\/em>(photo credits: AP).  <\/p>\n

Regarding the gastronomic<\/strong> side, the chef Olivier Tajetti<\/strong> is glad to offer you a tasty and sincere traditional<\/strong> menu, through well-crafted French<\/strong> classics<\/strong>. For example, you may appreciate a kernel of scallops<\/strong> in a beggar’s purse<\/strong> with citrus<\/strong> fruits, a velvety mushrooms soup<\/strong> with Fumaison<\/strong><\/em> cheese<\/strong> or the unmissable saut\u00e9ed sole meuni\u00e8re<\/strong><\/em> with mashed potatoes<\/strong>, unless you prefer skrei<\/strong><\/em> fish with bacon<\/strong> sauce and small pumpkin<\/strong> pur\u00e9e<\/strong><\/em>.
