Autour de Beurre is a restaurant designed to showcase the butter creations (yes, butter creations!) of Jean-Yves Bordier. Basically, this is a butter-centric restaurant. It had to be good, right? And it was! The atmosphere was super-cosy, warm and inviting. And the food was even better. It's a small little bistro so we were a little cramped, but it was worth it. We ordered a lobster lunch, which highlighted the different parts of the lobster paired with different variations of Bordier's butter. It was damned good. And we washed it down with a bottle of wine. I could get used to lunches like this!
Later in the day we came back to Bordier's butter store (it was closed after lunch because, uh, this is coastal France and things just close in the afternoon). I highly recommend this store. I wish we could have brought back lots and lots and lots of butter but was we know, butter doesn't travel well in a suitcase. But the store had lots of other stuff to offer, including an amazing (albeit small) museum of BUTTER! Seriously! It was really cool. If you're ever in Saint-Malo, don't miss this!
