We were staying in Ouistreham for a few days and looked for a good place for lunch serving seafood…read moreplatters.
Found this restaurant (located in a Spa-Hotel) in nearby Cabourg online - had good feedback. So we made a reservation.
There's a big parking lot in front for customers and hotel guests, so that's very convenient.
We got a table inside. Our Bulldog was welcome as well. It wasn't really busy on that weekday. Quite a surprise actually, because the lunch was nothing short of amazing!
Service was excellent. We got taken care of very well and we felt welcome and at home.
Had the mi-cuit Foie Gras for starter. A great item, flavourful, tender and really melts in your mouth. Did have some apples slices inside, that went very well together.
For the mains the Beef Tartare and the seafood platter. There were shrimp, langoustines, 1/2 crab, whelks, winkles and of course oysters.
Every single piece of seafood was amazing and amazingly fresh. Whelks and winkles are often the weakest part of a seafood platter. But here the quality was excellent. And the oysters some of the best we've ever had. For 52 Euros this was an amazing deal.
The Tartare was really nicely done as well. Homemade Tartare, nice cuts - you could tell it was knife-cut and not just store bought. It was very enjoyable to eat the fresh and tasty chunks of meat. The excellent bottle of white wine went well with all the dishes.
We did really have an amazing lunch here. Quality, service, presentation. All the very best. Highly recommended. Next time when we're back in the North of France we will definitely be back here.
