Horbourg Wihr, France
L'Esprit Libre
A short-menu restaurant in the village of Horbourg-Wihr, L'Esprit Libre operates on the principle that fewer choices, made well, say more than a lengthy carte. Owners Catherine and Marc Foesser run the room with the ease of people who genuinely enjoy having guests, while chef Mickaël produces cooking grounded in good sense rather than performance. It sits outside the Alsatian tourist circuit, which is part of its appeal.
