Fontevraud-l'Abbaye, France
Fontevraud L'Ermitage
Inside the cloisters of Fontevraud Abbey, one of Europe's largest monastic complexes, Thibaut Ruggeri — Bocuse d'Or 2013 winner — cooks a tightly focused creative menu anchored in the Loire's biodynamic produce. A Michelin star since 2024 confirms the kitchen's standing. The setting alone sets an agenda that most French restaurants cannot match on geography alone.
