Likoké
Creative · ★ Michelin

Likoké is the most international of Ardèche’s restaurants! Belgian-born Cyriel Huysentruyt, in charge of the front of house and wine, works side by side Colombian chef Guido Niño Torres, who upholds the establishment's globetrotting ethos. Over the course of a single set menu, he presents playful, colourful dishes like invitations to head off on a journey, sometimes inspired by a memory, an encounter, a past event… His signature dishes include ceviche of matured trout, whose composition varies with the season. Everything is sourced locally: cheese, veggies, pigeon, etc... Bang-on confident coo
