Seasonal, sustainable and local depict the characterful establishment of Sophie Gigot and Nicolas Septon, which is as pared-back and natural as their cuisine. A seat on the terrace beneath the grapevine trellis is just the ticket for a leisurely meal. Chef Nicolas cooks with spontaneity and flair, changing the menu weekly based on fresh arrivals from local producers, to whom he pays tribute via a small card placed on each table. Is it broad bean season? In which case, they may be flanked by a rhubarb, scented geranium and goat’s milk sauce. Fresh Ondenval trout might be baked in golden, flaky puff pastry and then paired with fermented asparagus and a tangy broth made from fermentation juices. A playful approach to micro-seasonal cooking, gift wrapped in a wholesome setting.
