Les Moussaillons sur Le Pouliguen

26/05/2026: Nice little restaurant. Welcoming and cheerful staff. Good mussels from Guérande.

20/05/2026: I've been going to this restaurant for over 15 years, every time I'm in La Baule. The Bateau Ivre mussels were a must, even for a two-day stay; it was unthinkable not to go at least once. My husband would make the reservation and knew the former owners well. Since the sale, I've been disappointed with the recipe, which is supposedly identical. I tried it again recently, and the disappointment is simply too great: where before the special sauce generously coated the mussels, and you could still dip the fries in it, now it's just a slightly colored liquid floating on the bottom. Awful. You can still taste the ingredients of the original recipe, but the generosity is gone, and it's not worth the price. Special mention goes to the very unpleasant conversation I had about this: I was told that the recipe is identical to the original, that the creators even come to the kitchen to check that it's being made correctly. Someone isn't telling the truth. Those who knew the recipe before know this. Luckily, the natural turnover of customers makes this review NS (Not Applicable). The galettes and crêpes are still delicious.
