Le Vasselot — Restaurant in Rennes

In all objectivity, we had perfect service. Then I had the worst meal of my life.

The amuse bouche was some sort of mayonnaise. It was tasteless and I think that is what made me sick. They also brought us bread that was decent but mildly stale.

The appetizer was an arancino that could have been great if it contained any salt.

The main course was a 'pressée de porc' that was simply disgusting. Alongside it was a bunch of shrimp that was flavorless, cut into inappropriate and unappetizing pieces, and had the worst possible texture. There was also a little fried ball of boudin noir that was actually okay and I hate boudin noir.

Une cuisine gourmande et généreuse dans une ambiance conviviale et sympathique : je confirme ! Un bon moment à ne pas manquer dans ce nouveau restaurant Rennais. J'ai beaucoup apprécié le mariage des épices (je ne parle pas de piments) avec un accompagnement de bons vins au choix des différentes envies. Quelques photos de mon aventure, entrée : mélange de l'asperge des couteaux coques et épices excellent et original, plat : le paleron cuit longtemps avec les pommes de terre cuisinées avec différents épices, les cromesquis de légumes à découvrir et en dessert le craquant mangue mélange de différents ingrédients et saveurs sans oublier les pépites de chocolat sous le craquant. Merci à Maxime et Julie pour ce beau travail, cette cuisine de grande qualité et cette excellente...
