“Tell me what you eat,
I'll tell you what you are"
At La Cuisine-Comptoir we question our food choices and their consequences on the living world. We believe that gastronomy is an art of living and a science that unites the laws of physics, chemistry and all the laws of nature. Which combines both art and know-how.
We seek, modestly inspired by Brillat-Savarin and his “Meditations on Transcendent Gastronomy”, to awaken minds by linking cultural aspects to the pleasures of the table. For us, meeting producers, choosing food, preparing it, cooking it, dressing it, tasting it… these are all ways of acting on health, happiness, conviviality, the environment, local economy and politics. We thus nourish our work as artisan cooks and sharpen our sense of living well together.
Our kitchen aims to offer you dishes that are as close as possible to the products in order to create a link between you, eaters, and our farmer friends from the land and sea, who feed us.
Our menu, in homage to the “Physiology of Taste”, aims to be a collection of lovely anecdotes and beautiful stories on the art of knowing how to eat and the act of eating to know.
“Gastronomy is the reasoned knowledge of everything that relates to man as he nourishes himself.
Its goal is to ensure the preservation of men, by means of the best possible food.
Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin
