La Tupina

La Tupina puts the cooking traditions of southwestern France at the centre of a meal in Bordeaux. Founded by Jean-Pierre Xiradakis in 1968, the restaurant now identifies Franck Audu as its chef. Its address on rue Porte de la Monnaie places it between Saint-Michel and Sainte-Croix, in the older part of the city.

The fireplace is central to the restaurant's identity: the official presentation describes poultry roasting, soup simmering and regional preparations cooking around the hearth. The name itself refers to a cooking pot. This is an address to consider when regional food and the setting of an established Bordeaux dining room matter more than a tasting-menu format.

The restaurant's current website lists lunch and dinner from Tuesday to Sunday and dinner on Monday. Its menu is available through the official website, while reservations can also be made through TheFork. No fixed meal budget is quoted here because the checked homepage does not establish one.
