Les Amis

The other main I had was the 𝐋𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐞𝐮𝐫 𝐃𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐮𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐃’𝐈𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐲 “𝐒𝐚𝐮𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐭”, the heart of isigny salmon gently cooked & accompanied with civet sauce. The salmon heart was so ridiculously tender and almost had a dory-like texture.

We then moved onto our mains. For this, we chose the 𝐋𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝐃𝐞 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐬, 𝐏𝐨𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐁𝐞𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐲, roasted challans duck breast from vendee with ginger-caramel pear.

I on the other hand, went for the 𝐋𝐚 𝐍𝐨𝐢𝐱 𝐃𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭-𝐉𝐚𝐜𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬 𝐃’𝐄𝐫𝐪𝐮𝐲 𝐀 𝐋’𝐄𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐞. This consisted of a single slow roasted scallop handpicked by a diver off the coast of Erquy. It was mindblowingly good - I’ve never had a scallop so tender and fresh.

We then had our Entrées served - my partner opted for the 𝐋𝐞𝐬 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐄𝐭 𝐋𝐚 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐟𝐟𝐥𝐞 𝐄𝐧 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐞 [supplement of $40]. This dish was so beautifully plated, with alternating layers of mushrooms & black truffle on petals of roseval potatoes.

I celebrated my birthday last week at the iconic Les Amis! I was SO excited about this meal, given that it’s a three Michelin starred restaurant and it didn’t disappoint.

We opted for the 3-course at $155/pax and although some dishes were definitely more of a hit than others, we still enjoyed the meal overall 😋 Plus, there were so many complimentary dishes that it ended up feeling like a 10 course meal rather than a 3 course! 😂

We started with a complimentary starter - a thin, crispy shell topped with sliced mushrooms and truffle. This was so incredibly light and delicate, and was gone within two bites 🤪

Le Clementine: variation of Clementine from corsica in a refreshing candied peel.

Very refreshing final dessert course to end of our wonderful meal and experience at Les Amis!
