The trendy temps of foodistas

Homard Gastronomique

Good news for gourmet foodies. The star chef who is creating the buzz in the modern-style gastronomy world with this little corner of lost paradise, totally bucolic. A very unusual Relais&Château and off the beaten track, we love it !

Better than hotel roomsDesigner huts! Imagine small hunting inhabitations all in wood, revisited and redesigned with a futuristic version. It gives a bluffing result, cozy, very bright and totally sustainable … the kind of place real lovers never want to leave... (starting at 215€ per night)

Cherry on the cake, the huge tub for two, hidden ( yes !) and the free mini-bar with coffee and little waffles … What else ? A fab dessert with rice pudding, fruit salad, brioche, instant egg, freshly squeezed juice. Who said life could not be wonderful ?

A real gourmet show, Alexandre Gauthier, really pampers his clientele is his cleverly decorated restaurant,  surrounded by lush vegetation and totally anti-frills. A succession of amazing dishes where you rediscover what real cooking is all about. Of note: his « lobster lost in the forest » presented on a bed of juniper berries for a real culinary show. What else? Its grilled oysters, its haute couture asparagus, beehive honey!

(85€ the 8 course tasting menu.)

Montreuil, is a village surrounded by defense ramparts. To open up your appetite, loose a few  calories and enjoy the great view, try the mini-jogging course for lovers along the ramparts… 1/2h round-trip tops from the hotel !

Impossible to leave… without stopping by Touquet Paris Plage, just a few minutes by Audi! On the program: after having tasted a Gillardeau oyster and a signature fish soup, filled with cheese, rouille sauce and croûtons from Pérard, the local institution. The oyster bar is located… in the middle of the fish shop! A good doze of iodine is guaranteed.

Hooray for retro. For the adventuresome types, try the sand yacht, a national sport !

Road trip: 2h10

Drive in style to live arty, unusual and fashion experiences just as we like them.
