Hôtel Vintage

Louise was chef Julien Corderoch's great-grandmother, and it was she who sparked his love of food and, indeed, his culinary vocation. In a warm, contemporary interior, he proposes surprise menus made up of tasty seafood and plant-based dishes, making good use of sustainably caught fish (line and small-boat fishing) and drawing on his knowledge of the maturing process: gilthead sea bream sashimi, wild herb pesto and wild carrot; raw scallops, warm broth of brown shrimp with coriander and ponzu sauce; gently steamed pollack, creamy cauliflower and shiitake roasted in miso butter.

Chef Vincent Seviller has come up trumps in this establishment near the railway station. He invites diners on a bistronomic journey in a tasteful, modern setting. An experienced and talented craftsman, each dish is artfully presented, flavoursome and balanced. The lunchtime menu is chalked up on a slate, but more elaborate in the evening.

Pay little attention to the unremarkable façade of this restaurant, as the main focus is on the pretty dining room with its exposed beams and open fire. Refined traditional cuisine that follows the seasons is served. Friendly service with a smile.

This restaurant pays tribute to Mélanie Rouat (1878-1954), a friend of Curnonsky and a two-star chef in her day. Her great-great grandson, chef Jean-Baptiste Caillarec, and his pastry chef partner, Laura Martinon, both of whom boast stints in prestigious establishments, have opened this bright, contemporary restaurant, fronted by a lovely courtyard patio that is taken by storm in fine weather. The pair painstakingly sources top-quality ingredients, which they craft into succulent dishes: hot and cold clams, creamy parsley and dulse; ‘Mélanie’ lobster in cream; a new twist on oatmeal flan.

Contemporary design, open kitchens, a chef – Arthur Friess (with a fine Michelin-starred career) – and, managing the restaurant floor, Charlotte Le Gall: these are the ingredients that make this place a success. Lovely contemporary cuisine made from impeccable ingredients – such as pigeon, spelt au gratin and roots. Menu renewed every month.

Unsurprisingly, seafood – in particular fish from the local auction – takes pride of place in this pretty restaurant located close to the marina. Simplicity and accuracy reign on the plate, while the dining area has a minimalist and intimate decor.
