6 stars. The best, freshest, home made fine cuisine you'll find in Courseulle sur Mer.
The menu is very restricted (3 choices for main dishes, 2 local catches and one meat) as they use only fresh local products.
The cook will go to the port in the morning to get his fresh fish. The menu can change on a daily basis.
It's a small place that can accommodate probably 16 guests maximum. Nothing special about the place itself, it's located on the ground floor of an apartment building. Make sure you book (they ain't opened every day) a table because it's always full.
You'll get complimentary charcuterie plate after ordering your food.
Dishes are all amazing, well worked, prepared. The sauces are perfectly seasoned, tasty and light. All products are fresh.
I cannot specifically comment on the dishes I had as they change regularly but... I can highlight 2 plates:
- Blood sausage (boudin noir) starter, served on a sizzling salt block (see my photo) was superb. The use of sisho and pan sauteed veggies highlighted the sausage perfectly.
- Cod: perfectly cooked with a light foamy cream sauce and local veggies. The aroma of the sauce blended with the fish was succulent.
Deserts are so delicate, fine, light, tasty and the presentation is fantastic!
1 starter and 1 entree OR entree + desert for about US$32. Full set (starter, entree and desert) for US$ 37.
It was so great that I went there 2 evening in a row to try pretty much everything on their menu!
Highly recommended. read more
