Unperturbed, this compass of Luzian gastronomy never changes course, always steering us in the direction of controlled gourmet pleasure. Nicolas Borombo has the technical know-how, but above all the knowledge of his clientele and the products they need to enjoy. His menu is as much a tribute to the region as it is a highly personalized culinary ode: white asparagus with morel mushrooms, peas and arbois sabayon, Banka trout gravlax with ponzu wasabi avocado, scallops or Souraïde pigeon reveal a complex, in-depth approach, the culmination of which seduces every guest in a very attractive menu at €98, which can rise to €130 in the evening. The atmosphere is bright and festive, and the service contributes to this, as does the well-kept cellar, stocked with solid labels.
