Intuition

Make your way upstairs from the Brasserie les Capucines, which serves simpler fare, to this understated, plush restaurant overlooking the castle of Saint Lô. After acquiring a faithful following of regulars in Coutances, Mickaël Marion has returned to his birthplace and opened the floodgates of his creativity. A steadfast champion of local produce, he frequently goes walking in the countryside and marshes to pick plants and herbs. Back in his kitchen, he waves his magic wand/spoon and lo and behold - meadowsweet ice cream, pesto of wild herbs and lovage appear! He is a past master in the art of subtly assembling stellar Normandy produce – scallops, fish from small boats, with a dash of exoticism. A fine dining experience to remember.
