Le Moulin à Vent

At the edge of the Cotentin peninsula, Le Moulin à Vent occupies a country inn position that few coastal restaurants in France can match: a short menu built on local pigeon, lamb, abalone, and fish, filtered through a kitchen with a clear interest in Japanese culinary tradition. The interior is pared back, the view reaches the Anse Saint-Martin cove, and the surrounding headlands set the tone before you even sit down.
