After the success of her first venture, Vacarme, Sarah Mainguy set to work again at the beginning of 2024 with Freia, a nature-inspired restaurant with a small adjoining roof garden. In this light-bathed greenhouse-like space with a breathtaking view over Nantes, the chef has pushed the boundaries of her creativity even further, earning a Michelin star as a result. Expect a gastronomic experience of the highest order, with Scandinavian and plant-based influences and a resolutely local and contemporary approach.
