Description

With a terrific beachside location, this smart modern brasserie provides just what you want to see on a menu when you're beside the sea – fish and shellfish galore! Time-honoured techniques are used in reliably enjoyable classics like dressed crab and moules marinière, alongside daily fish specials such as pan-friend halibut with beurre blanc. To start, venture onto land with a dozen 'escargots' to share and, if the weather's good enough, make sure you grab a seat on the rooftop terrace that overlooks the beach.
