About
In Rostrenen, Erwan Botrel gives the farmhouse meal its full place again, with a wood-fired oven, generous meat and producers from central Brittany. Erwan Botrel looks to farmhouse tables where produce has a story and generosity is never sacrificed. His cooking showcases locally chosen meat and clear, honest dishes. The wood-fired oven gives the house meats their personality: heat, juices and cooking times demand a different mastery from standard equipment, and can give a tasty crust while keeping the meat tender. The restaurant highlights 100% local sourcing. Among the side dishes are potatoes browned in duck fat. A cellar visible from the street is part of the identity of the place; wine goes well with the flame-cooked meats and sauces. Chez Erwan is driven by its chef’s personality, in a warm and friendly setting. Rostrenen, in central Brittany, lies far from the big coastal tourist spots, and is a starting point for country routes and the Nantes-Brest canal.
