Chef Yann Oillic (formerly of L’Orée du Bois and Au Retour du Marché) has set up his restaurant in the village of Orvault. Behind a discreet front, a soft interior of scraped stone, light wood and touches of blue awaits, not forgetting the glass-panelled kitchen corner where you can see the team at work. The chef’s colourful, lively and well-executed dishes have everything to please, oscillating between a classic base and just the right amount of creativity.
Scallops from the Trugarez boat, avocado roasted in salted butter with citrus and cauliflower
Veal rump cooked at a low temperature, with wild garlic from the Cens valley and truffle jus
Fresh raspberries, crushed tomatoes and vanilla, olive oil sorbet, meringue and popcorn
