About

In Pont-Croix, Émeline Macé and Tanios Nakhlé-Cerruti combine free-spirited cooking and a selection of natural wines, in a restaurant with a strong personality. Glaz is the Breton word for the shifting shade between blue, green and grey that the sea often takes. It sums up the spirit of the house: open cooking, a singular decor and a refusal to freeze a living region into a postcard image. The chef’s Lebanese and Italian roots feed a taste for fresh notes, bitter flavours, textures and lively seasoning. A touch of acidity may lift a fish, while a bitter vegetable or a fresh herb gives depth to a sauce. The blackboard follows the seasons: generous ravioli, vegetables in the spotlight, the catch of the day or desserts with unexpected flavours, none of them fixed. Émeline Macé, formerly a figure of natural wine in Rennes, guides guests through a selection of committed estates. Tell her your tastes and she will suggest a gradual discovery. The colourful, intimate bistro is in the heart of Pont-Croix, a historic small town in Finistère, close to Audierne and the Pointe du Raz.
