Located by the sea in Bretignolles-sur-Mer, the restaurant JM Perochon celebrates local products with a cuisine that respects the seasons. Chef Jean-Marc Perochon sources fresh fish directly from the Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie fish market and carefully selects oysters from the Sauzaie oyster beds.

We are lucky to live in a fertile region with high-quality local products like Noirmoutier Salt, Challans Duck, and the famous Saint-Gilles-Croix-de-Vie Sardine, featured on our summer menu. Thanks to a selection of fresh and seasonal products, we invite you to enjoy a refined and committed cuisine.

Why choose local products at the restaurant?

At JM Perochon, the focus is on simple ethics: working with local products from local producers that respect the seasons. The menu changes with the seasons, highlighting quality local products from short supply chains. By eating local, we support the local economy and help promote the Vendée coast.

Respecting the seasons, the chef guarantees a traditional cuisine that is both innovative and seasonal, like dishes featuring scallops or lobster. This approach ensures that the menu is constantly evolving, offering fresh surprises with every visit. Offering homemade dishes is also a commitment to freshness and quality.
