Finistère
Beyond the crêpe: the real food of Brittany’s wild western tip
Oysters from Belon, langoustines from the bay, butter from Bordier. Finistère is one of France's great food destinations — and almost nobody treats it as one.
Paris is endlessly written about and endlessly surprising. After twenty years of visiting — for work, for pleasure, for the cheese shops on the Île Saint-Louis and the bistros nobody puts in guidebooks — these are the places I keep going back to. The ones that have never let me down.
