La Cabane d'Hortense - Les Youkas

France’s Cap Ferret Is Far More Than the ‘French Hamptons’ | Condé Nast Traveler

"I arrived at La Cabane D’Hortense as the sun was low and found a grove‑like enclave overlooking the Conche du Mimbeau; owner Khalid Zamrani, dressed head to toe in white cotton, has cultivated a 'zen space' where he laughs with regulars, teases newcomers and often joins guests — the team farms and serves oysters (half a dozen for less than £9, paired with a glass of rosé for about £3) and the atmosphere felt inclusive, relaxed and personal." - Johny Pitts
