Gwenhadu

Chef Mathieu Kergourlay welcomes diners to this 450-hectare property, the small castle of which has been tastefully restored and decorated by his companion. The full-bodied, generous and consummately crafted food is full of surprises, such as scallops and Morteau sausage in a brioche bread roll with spinach and a reduction of pork jus. All the menus and the à la carte lineup are gluten- and lactose-free.

The petrol-blue frontage of this restaurant between the River Jaudy and Cathédrale Saint-Tugdual draws the eyes of passers-by. Inside the small rustic-style space, with white roughcast walls, exposed beams and old stonework, an appetising market-fresh menu is served: foie gras marbled with red wine; roast cod with Coco de Paimpol haricot beans; financier with pan-fried apricots. The chef, who boasts a great CV, draws on both tradition and bistronomy to concoct dishes that are inspired by regional produce. Wide choice of wines by the glass. The bill won't break the bank.
