Saveur d'Haïti en Breizh

Hidden away in the vibrant town of Lorient, "Saveur d'Haïti en Breizh" offers a delightful culinary experience that transports you straight to the Caribbean. Located at 65 Rue Paul Guieysse, this enchanting restaurant is not just a place to eat; it’s a warm embrace of Haitian culture and flavors, elevated by the gentle touch of Brittany.

As I stepped inside, the ambiance drew me in—an inviting space bustling with laughter and the aroma of freshly prepared dishes. The restaurant is run by a passionate young couple, whose dedication to authentic Haitian cuisine shines through in every bite. According to patrons like Bruno Le Gourlay, the "nourriture d'excellente qualité" served here is paired with pricing that is remarkably approachable. It’s evident that both the quality and the generous portions make this spot a treasure for those seeking hearty and satisfying meals.

On the menu, a variety of dishes beckon. I couldn't resist trying the popular Riz djondjon, a fragrant blend of rice with petit pois and the unique djondjon mushroom. Accompanied by a choice of rich sauces—whether it’s chicken, pork, or fish—you can savor a delicious meal for as little as €9. Even my personal favorite, the Bouillon haïtien, a comforting potage rich with beef and vegetables, left me longing for more after just one bowl.

Children are welcomed here, too, with families returning again and again to enjoy dishes that please even the pickiest of eaters. Matthieu Simon shared a delightful experience with his family, highlighting just how welcoming and accommodating the team is. And let’s not forget the refreshing homemade juices; the jus de mangue and limonade are a perfect way to complement a spicy meal.

The culinary craftsmanship shines brightly, using fresh ingredients and authentic recipes passed down through generations. Many reviews, like that of Célia Oli, emphasize the couple's pleasant demeanor and the thoughtfulness that goes into each dish. Whether you are a connoisseur of Haitian cuisine or trying it for the first time, "Saveur d'Haïti en Breizh" promises an unforgettable dining experience.
