Le Respounchou
Gourmet Restaurant in Saint-Igest
Nestled in the heart of the village of Saint-Igest, Le Respounchou is the restaurant of Chef Quentin Bourdy, a native of the region who returned to settle at the roots of his family’s history. His cuisine is a legacy, shaped by the influence of his grandparents—who ran an inn—and draws on the bounty of the Aveyron region: seasonal vegetables, meats from local breeds, bread made with farm-grown flour, and vibrant wines.
With a menu that evolves based on market finds, Quentin works directly with local producers—farmers, ranchers, and cheesemakers— to create generous, authentic, and heartfelt cuisine, served in a warm and welcoming setting.
By his side, his wife Noémie Honiat, a pastry chefwho rose to fame on *Top Chef*, brings her gourmet touch and professional expertise to this family venture.
