MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
On the Plage de la Concurrence, the sign on the front of the restaurant leaves you in no doubt as to what to expect: "Christopher Coutanceau, cook and fisherman." Fishing is a passion that has been passed down through the family for a long time – his grandfather, then his father Richard, were devotees of seafood ingredients. Christopher takes it one step further: in addition to being an experienced fisherman, he is an advocate for sustainable fishing and a campaigner against waste. His cuisine is true to his convictions – a bouquet of marine scents, an ode to the ocean. The finest seafood ingredients (line-caught sea bass, turbot, sole, sea urchins, monkfish and langoustines, oysters, crab and many others) are creatively prepared with tenderness and imagination.
Gastronomy & Sustainability
"We are of the conviction that the chef is above all a citizen, and our approach goes beyond the restaurant to embrace various associations working to preserve marine resources, including Bloom, with whom we are fighting against electric fishing. Only fish from artisanal, sustainable and local fishing are on our menu. We work hand in hand with our vegetable producer in La Rochelle, and to avoid waste we use produce in its entirety."
