Varengeville-sur-Mer, France
La Table d'Elka
In a renovated farmhouse outside Dieppe, La Table d'Elka applies classical Gallic technique to the produce Normandy does better than almost anywhere else in France: line-caught turbot, wild seabass, and coastal herbs that grow metres from the kitchen. Chef Laurent Kleczewski works a menu that sits between terroir fidelity and quiet creative ambition, occasionally cutting across the Channel-facing landscape with dashi-spiked butters and dried fruit in pepper sauces.
