Bertrand Larcher has created a concept that transcends the traditional idea of a crêperie. With a buckwheat farm, the Otonali hotel, and a Japanese-inspired restaurant in Cancale, he offers the spirit of Brittany intertwined with the refined elegance of Japanese culture. Time-honored Breton crêpes are reimagined with subtle Japanese inflections to create an outstanding gastronomic union and a true testament to the harmonious blend of diverse food traditions. The Breizh Café crêperies were founded by Bertrand Larcher in Japan in 1995 and have since blossomed across France, from Cancale to Saint-Malo and Paris. The menu celebrates this fusion and every ingredient is selected for quality and seasonality. Signature dish the 'galette complète' merges the earthy crispness of buckwheat with the hearty flavors of good ham, a perfectly-cooked egg, and the sumptuous melt of Comté. The sweet crêpes feature inventive combinations like Okinawa black sugar, velvety matcha ice cream, and Kinako soybean powder, maintaining the Breizh Café ethos of simplicity and creativity. Larcher's vision reaches far beyond his crêperies. His ambitious goal is to create a Franco-Japanese food network that spans the globe. This means that Breizh Café stands as a cross-border cultural liaison, and we can all enjoy a taste of this culinary exchange at one of its many locations.
