假日之家，兰德勒

This former blacksmith's workshop was transformed into a farmhouse inn by the chef's grandmother. Back then, it catered to workers and locals who came for simple, filling victuals: soup, vol-au-vent, leg of lamb. Under the impetus of Olivier Bellin, who returned to his roots in 1998, the family inn has morphed into a sleek, stylish venue as its inventive, versatile chef has come into his own, brandishing an increasingly strong culinary personality. He works with an extraordinary network of cherry-picked, small-scale producers from Finistère whose work and produce are individually highlighted o

According to legend, bear’s garlic, a.k.a. as wild garlic or allium ursinum, starts to sprout at the same time as the brown bear leaves its lair after hibernation. After their winter fast, the hungry bears devour the young leaves, hence the name of this plant that has come to symbolise strength and fertility. Frédérique and Lionel Hénaff have opened the restaurant of their dreams outside Quimper’s town centre in a bid to celebrate Brittany’s gourmet produce. Seafood occupies a star role in their appetising cast, including scallops from the Bay of Morlaix and abalone. The chef’s inventive cuisi

The first restaurant in Finistère to clinch a MICHELIN star (way back in 1933!), the iconic Moulin de Rosmadec is a mecca for Breton gastronomy. It is set against an enchanting backdrop, with its flower-decked terrace on the banks of the Aven, on a site steeped in history - the mill dates back to the 15C. Sébastien Martinez's cuisine is an ode to Brittany's terroir (buckwheat, buttermilk, Plougastel strawberries) and local seafood (spider crab, langoustine, lobster). The chef delivers refined and delicate dishes with robust flavours and characterful sauces: a first-rate dining experience.

This picture postcard stone inn, both rustic and elegant, is reminiscent of a Gentlemen’s club. The chef is a fan of flavoursome, traditional cuisine that shines the spotlight on the best of Brittany’s ingredients. Also a sommelier, he can be trusted to pair his score with a fantastic wine cellar.

After a successful stint at La Table d'Olivier Nasti in Kaysersberg, Nicolas Carro decided to return to his native Brittany (he is originally from Loudéac). He took over this iconic restaurant in Finistère, formerly run by chef Patrick Jeffroy. While admiring the magnificent view over the Bay of Morlaix, diners can fully appreciate the quality of the food. The menu celebrates local produce, both from the sea (shellfish and small boat fishing) and the land (vegetables and meat such as guinea fowl and lamb from Monts d'Arrée). Expect delicate, refined dishes with pleasantly contrasting textures

This inventive modern bistro with a colourful, musical interior is run by two young talents. They serve hearty cuisine such as mushroom and coffee velouté with a celeriac brunoise and celeriac and coffee espuma – a wonderfully original starter. The lemon and pistachio condiment complements the freshness and balance of the fillet of flounder in pastry. Smiling and attentive service rounds off the experience, making you want to come back. Booking recommended.

This restaurant is tucked away in a side street set back from the marina and the walled city. Harmony reigns in the kitchen, where a duo of chefs composes dishes made with ultra-fresh ingredients. Locally sourced produce takes pride of place on the menu: buckwheat, the daily catch of small local boats, Brittany-reared pork, Bruyère Blanche poultry, farm-range eggs, without forgetting the excellent homemade bread.
