Manoir de Questinguy

Outside the town centre of Saint Brieuc, Aux Pesked embarks you on a journey between land and sea. In an uncluttered interior bathed in light, this eatery celebrates seafood with its briny and veggie-focused cuisine. Local produce and seasonal ingredients are cherry-picked by the veteran chef, who is on first name basis with each market gardener and fisherman. On the menu: tartare of scallops enhanced by fresh herbs, raviole of tender juicy crabmeat in a fragrant stock or a festival of shellfish in a shellfish and seaweed butter jus. Now add an intelligently curated wine list (organic, biodyna

The contemporary interior, which makes ample use of the light and materials , is admirably paired with the delicate, seafood menu of this country house opposite the estuary. An idyllic setting to sample deftly crafted, first-rate ingredients. Chef Nicolas Adam is not content with awakening your tastebuds, he is also the proud creator of a bakery and of the Rock’n Toques festival that takes place once a year, combining music and quality street food. The glazed wine cellar boasts some 350 references.

The first floor of this house overlooking the port sets the scene for many a fine meal. After a remarkable career (Coquillage at Cancale, La Pyramide – Patrick Henriroux at Vienne and the K2 at Courchevel), chef Samuel Selosse now gives free rein to his creativity. Firmly rooted in the zeitgeist and always exquisitely presented, his cooking showcases first-rate ingredients, be they fish or vegetables, giving rise to delicacies such as cauliflower in citrus fruits and fire roasted cuttlefish, brill from small boats, asparagus and seaweed-flavoured hollandaise sauce or a pine-flavoured creamy mi

Chef Damien Le Quillec named his restaurant after his two grandfathers. In this unusual setting – previously a garage, cleverly converted into a contemporary loft – he channels his talent into crafting ambitious dishes that appeal to the modern palate. Meanwhile, he has opened a convivial little bistro next door – Numéro 100, where he serves bistronomy fare in a home-from-home atmosphere.

This friendly bistro in the heart of this small coastal village occupies a charming building opposite the church. The space has been completely renovated in a contemporary style, while retaining nods to the past. Based on dishes for sharing and Celtic ingredients, the food bears the hallmark of Christophe Le Fur (Auberge Grand'Maison). Order a delicious pâté en croûte-style poultry and foie gras terrine, followed by a generous and perfectly indulgent house-made tiramisu for dessert. Front of house, Sonia Quéro provides dynamic service and a friendly welcome.

Nestling in a valley through which a river flows, this former mill sports a stripped-back, industrial-style interior. Two brothers, one in the kitchen and the other in the market garden, concoct healthy, natural cuisine based on seafood ingredients (fish, shellfish, crustaceans) and vegetables, some grown on site; meat is shelved. From the 100% plant-based starter, such as Jerusalem artichoke with lemon and black garlic purée, to the seafood main, like John Dory with cauliflower, vinegar-flavoured shiitakes and fish bone jus, Rolland hits the nail on the head every time!

Installed in the centre of Lannion, the chef rustles up modern Gallic fare, dotted with Japanese overtones, in tribute to his avowed passion for the Land of the Rising Sun. As a result, some of his high-precision recipes, based on super-fresh Brittany produce (langoustine, lobster, John Dory), are sprinkled with Japanese ingredients such as yuzu, shiitake, miso, etc. Lashings of imagination, art-directed plating, stylish elegance and high-flying technique complete this culinary score. Let’s not forget the warm, colourful interior.
