The story
At 74 rue Monge in Dijon’s centre-ville, Parapluie brings a fresh perspective to modern cuisine. The restaurant describes its cooking as “cuisine fusion moderne,” a style that draws on global influences while staying rooted in the ingredients of Burgundy. Its thoughtful approach has earned it a place in the Michelin guide as a Recommended address.
The experience is built around tasting menus. At lunch, guests choose from two to five services (27€ to 44€ on weekdays; a fixed four-service menu at 42€ on weekends). Dinner is a blind tasting affair: five, six, or seven courses priced from 58€ to 78€, with optional wine pairings that start at 42€. The team leans on seasonal produce and a sense of surprise—each plate arrives without a predetermined script.
The wine list is a serious asset. It spans Burgundy classics (Chablis, Marsannay, Meursault) alongside Champagnes, crémants, pétillants, and a thoughtful selection of orange wines and sake. The list reflects a deep knowledge of the region and a willingness to explore beyond it.
Parapluie also offers a terrace in season, making it a pleasant spot for warmer months. Gift vouchers are available for any occasion, a practical touch for those looking to share the experience.
Open Monday to Sunday for lunch and dinner, with closures on Saturday and Sunday—note the schedule carefully. Parapluie is a confident, unpretentious restaurant that lets its cooking and its cellar do the talking.
