• Le Pily★ Michelin Pierre and Lydie reign over the revolving bridge in a swish, modern edifice whose glazed walls command a matchless view of the harbour. Where better to do justice to the catch from small boats, lobsters and shellfish from Cotentin, so beloved of the chef? The entirely meat-free menu focuses on surgically and delicately prepared seafood, sprinkled with creativity and the odd distinctive Japanese touch: squid and shiitake, mushroom and soy stock; compote of vanilla-laced apples, ice cream with unpasteurised cream and yuzu-spiked caramel.15.4km
• L'Estran In this pretty little marina on the Cotentin Peninsula, a seasoned couple have turned a fish wholesale warehouse into a charming bistro, overflowing in maritime character. Shellfish and fish from a village fishmonger, veg from Val de Saire and lamb from Tatihou jostle for position on a “High Tide” menu that changes fortnightly. Each dish embodies the pleasure the chef takes in cooking and his partner's joy in providing attentive service. Knock-out lunchtime menu.12.1km
