It's a bit like the Michelin Guide for "Good Small Tables". The gourmet experience, but cheaper. The ceremony of the Michelin Guide, which took place in Cognac on Monday, March 22nd, also revealed the good establishments that offer a complete menu (starter, main course, and dessert) for a maximum of 35€ in the provinces and 39€ in Paris. This event is known as the Bib Gourmand ceremony. In the Hauts-de-France region, there are 9 addresses that have received this prestigious distinction. The complete list is here!
2 restaurants around Lille receive the Bib Gourmand
Next to Lille, there are 2 restaurants that have received this very encouraging Bib Gourmand. First, we have le Balsamique in Wambrechies rewarded for its modern cuisine. Here is what the experts had to say: "How pleasant is the small, peaceful terrace of Balsamique, especially on summer evenings.Wow! The young chef has more than one trick up his sleeve: his creative and quite original cuisine is based on impeccable products (like fish from Boulogne-sur-Mer) and is adorned with beautiful Asian influences. Efficient service and a great selection of champagnes. L'Encas, a trendy lounge bistro, allows you to enjoy the same dishes all day long, in a grab-and-go version. Second establishment 2 steps from us to receive this distinction? This is the Bistrot RG in Armentières! "Filial piety on the plate! Michelin-starred chef Nicolas Gautier (at Nature, just next door) and his brother Mathieu pay tribute to the cuisine of their father Roger Gautier (RG) through a small menu at affordable prices and a gourmet cuisine without any fuss that has everything to please: foie gras terrine with port wine; veal head with gribiche sauce and sautéed garlic mushrooms.." Addresses where you can go with your eyes closed without fear of a bad surprise in your mouth and another when paying the bill. Bon appétit, foodies!
