Description

“Naissain” means spat (or oyster larvae). This modern bistro was opened by Thomas Iglesias, a chef who has sailed the seven seas. He always has one dish devoted to this mollusc, which he sources from his brother's oyster farm in La Teste de Buch. As for the rest, this wayfaring chef admits to having a soft spot for vegetables, on which he lavishes his creative talent to tease out each flavour, in dishes such as a starter of mushrooms, miso, ham and Jerusalem artichoke. The concise menu is renewed monthly and the lunchtime menu offers excellent value for pleasure.
