Here in Porto Vecchio, everything revolves around the sea. The ancient Genoese city fought off the onslaught of barbarian invasions and is a symbol of pride for Corsicans. Another source of pride is this restaurant: a mecca for lovers of seafood. Don't be distracted by the enchanting view of the bay, nor by the location of this superb hotel – it is on the plate that the most remarkable things happen! Chef Fabio Bragagnolo's cooking is inspired by both Corsica and Italy, eg roast loin of Corsican pork (porcu nustrale) with rosemary, fermented plums and carrots, and hazelnuts from Cervione, an intoxicating dish that smacks of the local terroir. Meticulous from start to finish, the meal culminates in delicate low-sugar desserts, such as bitter orange and Grand Marnier soufflé, a symphony of orange flavours on the palate.
