At Gaston, we celebrate the timeless traditions of French cuisine while giving them a fresh and innovative twist. This November, we are thrilled to introduce our newest culinary masterpiece: Lapin à la Moutarde.

A Dish Steeped in Tradition

Lapin à la Moutarde, or rabbit in mustard sauce, is a dish that hails from the heart of Burgundy, France—a region known for its rustic yet refined gastronomy. This classic dish combines the tender flavors of slow-cooked rabbit with a velvety mustard cream sauce, creating a comforting and sophisticated meal that has graced French tables for generations.

Our Unique Take on Lapin à la Moutarde

At Gaston, we’ve elevated this traditional recipe to new heights. Our Lapin à la Moutarde features tender rabbit legs, braised to perfection in a creamy mustard sauce infused with white wine, fresh herbs, and a hint of garlic. To add texture and flavor, the dish is topped with a golden breadcrumb crust and garnished with fresh tarragon and parsley.

Served with perfectly cooked tagliatelle pasta—tossed lightly in chicken stock—this dish strikes the perfect balance between richness and freshness. It’s hearty, aromatic, and designed to transport you straight to the countryside of Burgundy with every bite.

Perfect Pairings

A dish this exquisite deserves an equally exceptional wine pairing. Our sommelier recommends enjoying the Lapin à la Moutarde with a glass of 2021 Meursault "Vieux Clos du Château de Citeaux" by Philippe Bouzereau. Its rich, buttery notes and crisp acidity complement the creamy mustard sauce beautifully.

Alternatively, a light and elegant Pinot Noir, such as the 2019 Chambolle-Musigny by Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg, will enhance the delicate flavors of the rabbit without overpowering the dish.

Why You’ll Love It

Lapin à la Moutarde isn’t just a dish—it’s an experience. It’s perfect for a romantic dinner, a cozy meal with friends, or even a celebratory gathering. With its bold flavors and heartwarming presentation, it’s bound to become a favorite among our guests.
