Bouin, France
L'Ecume Gourmande
In the marshland village of Bouin on the Vendée Atlantic coast, L'Ecume Gourmande draws on one of France's most productive shellfish and sea salt territories. The restaurant sits at the intersection of coastal terroir and careful kitchen craft, making it a considered stop for anyone tracing the western Loire's quieter dining circuit away from the better-known names of La Rochelle or Noirmoutier.
