On the outskirts of town towards Flers, Clément Gosselet and Jordan Lebascle, both from Orléans, one having worked for Ivan Vautier, the other at the Manoir de la Pommeraie, have put down their knives to sharpen them for a new clientele, and at home. Their ambitions are legitimate and not feigned, and are reflected in their dishes. Well-structured menus (starting at €26 for lunch), local produce used to good effect, and technique assured: poultry pressé and foie gras, pollack compote of smoked ratte shellfish, seasonal fruit and lemon confit parfait glacé in a pretty summer menu at €39. The room is well kept, and the city needs a table of this quality. A first toque.
