1. L'Auberge de Bagatelle
L'Auberge de Bagatelle, a beacon of modern gastronomy, is led by a dynamic Franco-Belgian couple. This picture-postcard country inn offers meticulously prepared cuisine by a team of ten white-jacketed chefs. They use deluxe ingredients such as fera from Éric Jacquier, poultry from Cour d'Armoirie, fruits from Saint Eustache orchards, and sea delicacies like wild spider crab or grilled John Dory. A pinnacle of fine dining!
Chef Jean-Sébastien Monné draws inspiration from his travel diaries and experiences with renowned chefs. His cooking is characterized by the quest for unique flavors, surprising combinations, and refined, subtle scents. Vegetables and fruits are central to his creativity, while meats and fish often serve to enhance the plant elements. His cuisine, showcasing the animal, mineral, and vegetable trilogy, is a signature of L'Auberge de Bagatelle.
Elodie, the hostess, ensures the well-being of guests and the harmony of the dining service. She maintains that excellence and elegance are always present. Located at the entrance of Le Mans, the restaurant offers a bucolic setting with a colorful and fragrant garden. L'Auberge de Bagatelle was awarded its first Michelin star in 2018, a well-deserved recognition for the dedicated and passionate team of Elodie and Jean-Sébastien Monné.
