Samedi midi, sinistre comme seul le Pas de Calais peut l'être quand le vent hurle froid et humide de la Manche. Le restaurant est attenant à un bistro dans un grand entrepôt délabré auquel on accède par une cour. Vous voyez clairement le bâtiment lorsque vous vous dirigez vers Calais Centre depuis l'autoroute, dans la rue Verdun, une grande tour polygonale sur le côté droit. Un cadre austère, mais propre et accueillant. Amuse-bouche de beau salami, suivie d'une soupe de châtaignes et foie gras ; Viennent ensuite les bulots à la persillade ; lotte au romanesco, écrasée et crue râpée au wasabi. Canard confit avec une dauphinoise de céleri-rave, et en guise de pudding, glace aux pistaches. Café...
Nous sommes tombés sur ce restaurant par hasard à la recherche d'une atmosphère agréable en dehors de la ville et nous avons certainement eu de la chance !!! C'est un peu en dehors de la ville mais ça vaut le détour. Notre français est très basique mais nous nous entendons bien avec le personnel qui ne parlait pas bien anglais mais faisait de son mieux. Heureusement, notre compréhension des termes culinaires est un peu plus que basique. La nourriture était fantastique avec un chef qui connaît évidemment son "truc" et sortir des sentiers battus avec des saveurs fantastiques, une entrée de radis noir et de crevettes était excellente, suivie d'un plat de canard au céleri-rave avec des saveurs q...
we drove so often past this converted slaughterhouse and wanted to visit – this time en route home to the eurotunnel we stops – and I am so glad that we did. we had just had a bad experience in chateau tilque, where. eating was horrific – so that we visit the bistro to lunch and enjoy a beautifully cooked onglet and fries, with a very acceptable carafe composed by red – was an unexpected joy, and to just a quarter of the price. I would not hesitate to go back – and make my first call, not the last one. my only criticism, why didn't we know about it?
Kind of a hidden gem because it's inside the "Le Channel" cultural centre and you have to know that it exists to find it. Yet it's about a 5 minute drive from Eurotunnel on the way into Calais and well worth finding.There's a bistro and a restaurant. I always eat in the restaurant because it's very good. It's usually quiet at lunch and the staff are friendly and helpful.

This old abattoirs has been converted into an art/culture centre complete with circus. very good service, excellent food and a very good locally brewed beer (bourgeoise de Calais). if you are looking for something a little different look no further.
when they eat somewhere in the pas de calais, they eat here. this is a star restaurant at a price considerably less than they would expect. a new menu every month is always mouth water. the service excellent. do not hesitate.
