A Nature décor, driftwood and bamboo

The tables with comfortable seating are agreeably spaced out in the spacious and elegant dining room of Dame Nature, that receives through its sunroof a subdued light as filtering from the canopy of a forest. Nature is omnipresent in a Zen atmosphere: green plants grow on the walls, the open kitchen is sheltered by a curtain of bamboo and greenery, on a water wall, bubbles slowly drift up and floated wood sculptures inhabit the corners. Nature make you feel so good!

High-class Brasserie

The Restaurant Dame Nature, an organic pioneer open since 2001, was awarded the title of Master Restaurateur since October 2014.
Its original and tasty cuisine combines gourmandise with nutritional and energy qualities of organic food, cooked in respect of nutritional value,with a focus on the taste of the product. Its menu of upscale brasserie is suitable for vegetarians as well as meat lovers or vegans with attention for people allergic to certain products.
To begin, you can taste the Variation of colorful Tomatoes, Mozzarella di Buffala and its Cucumber granita and Parsley Pesto: the crisp of green, yellow or red tomatoes beautifully combine with the Burrata. We even finished the juice with the delicious bread served in tiny wicker basket!
Another wonder is the original organic Salmon, cooked at very low temperature, with three condiments: avocado/wasabi, beets with sherry vinegar and lemon pulp. In the mouth, the tasty salmon evokes the scent of a torrent in Scotland or a Norwegian fjord.
Vegetarians will be charmed by the Tart with the day’s Vegetables, mishmash of Salads and sprouted seeds when vegans will prefer the Wok of seasonal Vegetables with smoked Tofu.

Farm Chicken Suprème

Annie Bertin’s famous vegetables

As a main course, there is the fresh “a la plancha” grilled local Squid, crispy Ratatouille, Basil emulsion, Lemon crémeux. The squid is tender, cooked to perfection, delicately colored by the cooking: like eating sea. Meat lovers will remember the piece of Beef a la plancha, with its glazed small vegetables, Black Garlic juice, leaves of wild Capucines. The beef, pink at heart, melts in your mouth and the jus, “corsé à souhait”, gives it its full dimension.
The vegetables are the reputable vegetables by Annie Bertin, a lady farmer courted by starred chefs, who practices organic farming in Rennes. Extremely fresh mini-turnip or small broccoli are crunching under the tooth, expressing their incomparable flavors! Crisp, fresh, gourmands, tasty, their bright multiple colors and fabulous shapes make them attractive as possible. A good reason to recharge energy, vitamins and minerals without taking a gram.
One of restaurant Dame Nature’s sure values: the Beef tartare (200 g), prepared in front of you, with salad and potatoes or the Farm Chicken supreme at low temperature, Parsley emulsion, Barley pilaf with truffled Balsamic, poêlée of violet artichokes, chicken jus.

Gluten-free desserts

All Dame Nature’s desserts are gluten free. The dark Chocolate crémeux with exotic Fruits blends the force of the cocoa with the exotic fruits delicate sensual flavors. With the Surprise of Strawberries with White Chocolate – we won’t reveal the surprise – we are caught right in a gluttony sin! The menu include other sweets like the Profiteroles, Raspberries with declination of Pistachio or the Tart with the moment’s fresh fruits.

Organic and biodynamic wines
