The decor is trendy with bare bricks, polished concrete floors and bistro furniture, as is the concept... Choose a bottle of wine from the cellar, before pairing it with a good, simple dish with a focus on ingredients (artisan produced charcuterie, free - range meat, cheeses from Bordier etc). A tasty and friendly place.

Chef Yann Caputo is a big fan of vegetables, which he grows in his own vegetable garden and sources from small local producers. Here in his "garden bistro", he also likes cooking fish, mainly from Brittany, in homage to his native region. The reasonably priced lunch menu is a steal. The evening menu features more high-end ingredients, which are always accompanied by vegetables from the chef's garden: seared langoustines with peanut and satay, green apple tartare with mint and tarragon; turbot and garden vegetables, hazelnut sabayon, trout roe and lemon caviar.

On this particular lunchtime: a vibrant gazpacho with burrata ice cream, crunchy vegetables and pine nuts; perfectly tender skate wing coated in a creamy sauce with keta salmon roe. Fresh, seasonal ingredients, cooked to perfection. Appealing
