L’ensoleiller
Special evening of French cuisine
French restaurant L’ensoleiller is located by the lakeside of Sakuraga-ike, a symbol of the majestic nature of Nanto.
The star features of owner-chef Atsushi Takami’s French cuisine are the fresh seasonal vegetables produced by the community’s own local farmers. Chef Takami highlights organic and naturally-farmed vegetables grown in the red soil of Tatenogahara, where L’ensoleiller is located, as the main components for every meal, carefully and expertly combining them with fresh ingredients such as seafood from Himi, Shinminato, and Noto, as well as pork and beef from Toyama, to produce high quality dishes to be served before guests.
Chef Takami’s cuisine was awarded one Michelin star and the Green Star in the Michelin Guide Hokuriku 2021 Special Edition. Enjoy the authentic French cuisine of L’ensoleiller.
