Chef's Restaurant
A newcomer to the Malouin gastronomic galaxy. And a solid one at that! Victor Betton embarked on his entrepreneurial adventure after honing his skills with renowned Parisian chefs and working for a time in the kitchens of the Élysée Palace. His corner restaurant occupies the first floor of a building with typical Parisian architecture. The atmosphere is very cosy, with parquet flooring, exposed stone walls, a fireplace and white tablecloths... Victor promotes a strict market cuisine using ultra-local sourcing. It claims to be "ethical". On the slate, you won't hesitate to succumb to the mackerel that was still wriggling not so long ago. Just licked with a flame, it is cooked fresh with chicory and mustard seeds. The scallops, delicate and fleshy, are devilishly gourmet, enhanced by the addition of well-braised beards and truffle. As for the sweet touch, it comes in the form of a vanilla cream "assembled à la minute" to which the acidity of the kiwi and the subtlety of verbena treated as a granita respond. The service is lively and unfailingly kind. A very short wine list, but one that's right on target with organic and biodynamic wines: anjou Clos de Nell, alsace pinot blanc from domaine Loberger, meursault from domaine Mikulski, beaujolais from Pierre-Marie Chermette, vin orange (Hérault) from Olivier Cohen...
