With its panoramic view of the sea and the port, this local institution on the Cotentin peninsula faces the Channel Islands of Jersey and Guernsey. In a pleasant contemporary interior, you will sample modern, elegant cuisine that shines the limelight on Normandy produce, with a weakness for local seafood, illustrated by pollock, fennel (confit and roasted) and a lemon-flavoured butter emulsion.
