Food & drink

Let’s put an end to the clichés! There’s more to Brittany than crêpes and buckwheat pancakes! The ocean tang of oysters, the succulence of fresh king scallops, the crunchiness of kouign-amann, a heavenly crêpe topped with salted butter caramel, a bowl of sparkling cider, ripe strawberries from Plougastel, full-bodied buckwheat whiskey … these are all among the tastes of Brittany! Breton cuisine will make your mouth water with its wide range of flavours from land and sea. With the region’s local, seasonal products, you’re sure to find something you like – for gourmet experiences you’ll never forget.
