Omija

At the helm of his own restaurant since 2019 and with a splendid starred experience under his belt, Romain Bonnet crafts a creative surprise menu of Asian inspiration: the ‘omija’ is a Korean berry known to feature the five ‘flavours’ in perfect harmony. Romain is unswerving in his dedication to taste: radish and seaweed gnocchi brilliantly play on acidic notes as shrimp adds a well-judged spicy edge. Flawlessly cooked, gutsy stocks and irresistible big-boned sauces. The produce, mostly organic, is painstakingly sourced (common shrimp from la Cotinière, Oléron Island, line-caught pollack, Vendée squab). An infectiously cosy eatery with unstarched, yet seamless service.
