The story
Step inside Madame B, at the Hôtel Burdigala in Bordeaux, and you are met with a warm, convivial atmosphere that invites you to slow down. The restaurant, which holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand for its good quality, good value cooking, is built around a simple, powerful idea: reviving the madeleines of Proust. Chef Grégory Vingadassalon takes those nostalgic, comforting flavours and reinterprets them with creativity and precision, offering a menu of modern cuisine that feels both familiar and inspired.
The concept is refreshingly flexible. Whether you are visiting for a business lunch, a quiet dinner for two, or a gathering with friends, the menu is designed to be tailored to your appetite. You can choose from two to five courses, with prices ranging from 27€ to 59€. This approach allows you to experience the chef’s thoughtful cooking without being locked into a rigid format. The result is a meal that feels personal, generous, and deeply satisfying.
Beyond the dining room, the Bar Madame B, set beneath a luminous glass atrium, offers a more intimate space for cocktails and small, gourmet pleasures. It is a natural extension of the restaurant’s philosophy: elegant yet relaxed, and always welcoming.
The Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition speaks to the restaurant’s commitment to accessible excellence. At Madame B, that means cooking that is both comforting and clever, rooted in memory but looking forward. It is a place where you can rediscover the simple joy of a well-made dish, in a setting that feels like a genuine escape.
