Two Stars: Excellent cooking
MICHELIN Green Star
The grandson of farmers, Normandy-born David Toutain started out in the kitchen of Bernard Loiseau, before making a name for himself at a series of renowned establishments (including Arpège, Agapé Substance). In a modern, loft-style space, he has brought a showcase of culinary experimentation to a quiet street in a neighbourhood of government buildings. His technical prowess brings clarity to his dishes as he tirelessly taps into contemporary tastes (rather like his best friend, Alexandre Mazzia) to produce an ambitious cuisine d'auteur. He and his team now serve their creations in the form of "surprise" set menus comprising four to 10 courses. The desserts by pastry chef Émilie Gérardi deserve a special mention. The terrific wine list features a number of reasonably priced bottles.
"Nature is our main source of inspiration. We design our cooking to align with the seasons and we work with small producers or artisans who have an environmentally friendly approach. We place our produce orders according to future bookings in order to minimise waste and we are keen to share with all members of staff the good practices to be implemented."
