A chef with an exceptional background
Arriving in Périgord at only 22 years old, Adrien Soro has become, over the years, a true child of the country, who has returned today to enhance all its flavors. Trained in the biggest houses, he worked alongside Joël Robuchon, Alain Ducasse and Hélène Darroze. A background that testifies to rare technicality and a strong sensitivity for noble products and the right taste.
But it is in Dordogne that it really reveals itself. At only 27 years old, he won a Michelin star at the head of the restaurant Le Domaine de la Meynardie, located in Paulin, in the heart of Périgord Noir. An achievement that left a lasting impression and made him one of the most promising young chefs of his generation.
After this meteoric recognition, Adrien Soro chose to enrich his career abroad: Morocco in the company of Hélène Darroze. These are all experiences that refine his sense of culinary emotion and his vision of products.
Today, he returns to the land of his heart with a simple desire: to defend Périgord, to magnify its flavors, and to offer Monrecour a new creative breath.
A vision: to enhance Périgord and touch the emotion
In the press article devoted to his arrival, Adrien Soro confides that he is driven by a deep desire to share and emotion. For him, cooking is a story, a gesture, an intention. But it is also a reflection of a territory that he loves viscerally.
“Périgord has great strength. It has everything to welcome visitors from all over the world, and we are going to make them dream,” he explains.
At La Table de Monrecour, he wants to offer legible, tasty cuisine, where each plate says something. Far from the effects of style, it highlights candid emotions, an approach where the “soul” of the product is at the center of everything.
The green landscapes, the beauty of the Dordogne, the passionate producers, the markets, the seasons: all this nourishes his creativity. The chef wants to build a gastronomy that is rooted, but resolutely modern.
A new menu: elegance, indulgence and freedom
His arrival marks the opening of a new map, structured around three main menus, designed to meet all desires:
⭐ Tasting menu “Awakening over time” — 120€
A journey in 6 stages, designed as the best way to discover the chef's entire creative palette. This menu tells about its history, its encounters, its influences from here and elsewhere. An emotional walk where each dish surprises, comforts and amazes.
⭐ “The Awakening of Our Lands” menu — 85€
A 4-course intermediate menu that highlights the essentials of La Table de Monrecour. It offers a great overview of the chef's cuisine, with a gourmet, legible and refined approach.
⭐ “The Awakening” menu — 45€
A 3-course menu, designed to share the pleasure of gourmet cuisine in simplicity and sincerity. The spirit of Périgord finds its place there, with iconic products worked with elegance.
⭐ A Midday Formula
In order to open up gastronomy to as many people as possible, a formula specially designed for lunch will always be current. A faster format, but still demanding, ideal for foodies visiting, business lunches or estate regulars.
A team united around an ambitious project
The arrival of Adrien Soro was accompanied by the creation of a young, talented and passionate team. They all share the same vision: to make Monrecour shine, to offer a coherent and lively gastronomic experience, and to welcome guests with warmth and professionalism.
In the dining room as in the kitchen, the atmosphere is that of a restaurant that is building an ambitious future, while maintaining the elegance and the art of living that are the signature of the Domaine.
The start of a new impetus for La Table de Monrecour
With this new chapter, the Domaine de Monrecour affirms more than ever its desire to include La Table de Monrecour among the major gastronomic addresses in Dordogne. An ambition nourished by the talent of the chef, the richness of the Périgord region and the exceptional beauty of the place.
Between authenticity and modernity, between heritage and creation, Adrien Soro's cuisine promises to write a unique story, which we are happy to share with all our visitors.
La Table de Monrecour now opens its doors to you to discover this new culinary experience: elegant, generous, vibrant... just like its chef.
We look forward to welcoming you.
