The Experience
From Michelin Guide
Welcome to the world of Baptiste Renouard, so young yet already a seasoned veteran – he honed his skills for over 14 years, completing stints at Lasserre, Robuchon, Alléno, Laurent and L'Escargot 1903, no less! This is vibrant, joyful and technically flawless cuisine, out of which the chef devises a carte blanche menu. Plants play a major role: 70% of the herbs and flowers used are picked by the chef himself on the nearby island, Île des Impressionnistes. The restaurant is located in a small, semi-pedestrianised street in the town centre. The contemporary interior has stone walls, exposed beams and raw natural materials.
