Madame is Cypriot, Monsieur has worked in Spain! You can feel the sunshine in the streets of Lorient at this double-barrelled restaurant: ‘The Victor Hugo, a restaurant in Lorient’, "or else the VH", says chef Dominique Dublé. Here they love Mediterranean cuisine, so, as you leaf through a menu with a real flavour of the sea, you come across mushrooms à la grecque, moussaka, smoked fish served with tamara salata, fish with chorizo, stuffed red mullet with tapenade. "I love mixing cultures!"...

"I love mixing cultures!" Southern and Breton cultures mingle because this is, after all, a restaurant serving locally sourced food "but without blinkers, using flavours from elsewhere!" All the good Breton products are there, coucou de Rennes (chicken cooked in Telenn Du beer), John Dory with Breton curry etc. And the sun is there too, shining through the glass in the magnificent octagonal conservatory.
