  1. La Renaissance

    Modern French

    A Michelin-starred restaurant in the Normandy market town of Argentan, where the kitchen treats the region as a larder: scallops from Port-en-Bessin, lobster from Carteret, cream that hasn't seen a pasteurizer. The cooking is modern and precise, and the front of house is run with the quiet authority of someone who has been doing it for a very long time. The wine list, her department, rewards attention.
