A new chapter at Bastide de Moustiers with Valentin Fuchs

A renowned address, refined cuisine and an unexpectedly affordable menu. in Rouen, on the banks of the Seine, this emblematic restaurant has taken up the challenge of making gastronomy more affordable without sacrificing quality. For lunch and dinner, diners can enjoy a 5-toque restaurant for no more than €50, a far cry from the usual prices for this type of establishment.
Prestigious cuisine at affordable prices
While this offer may come as a surprise in an establishment of this level, it is part of a carefully thought-out approach. The business menu, priced at €49 and served from Wednesday to Friday at lunchtime and from Wednesday to Thursday at dinnertime, allows haute cuisine enthusiasts to enjoy a gastronomic experience at an unusual price.
The menu features dishes conceived in a spirit of sharing and conviviality: snails with mushroom fricassee and parsley cream, braised veal chuck and sautéed vegetables... Dishes that evolve with the seasons and harvests. Coming soon, a salmon and haddock tartare with Thai mayonnaise and wasabi mousse will enrich the menu.
