About
A few streets from the port of Concarneau, Cédric Rivière offers demanding, understated Breton cooking at Le Flaveur. Fish from small boats, buckwheat, poultry and homemade bread make up a menu deeply linked to producers and the rhythm of fishing. Le Flaveur is on rue Duquesne, away from the immediate bustle of the Ville Close and the quays. The modest façade suits the restaurant’s personality: here the Concarneau landscape enters the plate rather than a panoramic dining room. Cédric Rivière has run the house for many years. He favours fresh Finistère produce, handled with contemporary techniques while staying clear and readable. The day’s catch comes from small local boats, and buckwheat is one of the terroir markers. Breton pork, Bruyère Blanche poultry and farm eggs also feature, and the homemade bread is often singled out as a speciality.
