Lucas et Chris

Located just a few minutes' walk from the old town, this contemporary bistro with an emphasis on conviviality is run by two guys who were born and bred in Colmar: Lucas Gaertner (in the kitchen) and Chris Roldan, who is also a DJ in his spare time. At lunchtime, the chef serves a three-course set menu (choice of fish or meat); at dinnertime, the menu – updated every month – is more extensive. Expect beautifully prepared dishes that err on the side of tradition, such as salmon gravlax, horseradish cream and honey mustard, or veal kidney and butternut knepfles – a testament to the experience of a chef who has worked at Robuchon and Le Maximilien in Zellenberg.
