The cuisine
 
At Le Maquis everything possible is done to make life enjoyable and delight the senses.  It's as if this house on the beach were just made to look out on the sea, breathe in joyfully the aromas of fine cuisine, and become a poem of savors.
 
"Here the honey tastes like arbutus berries, pork has a hint of myrtle and flour the sweetness of chestnuts" as Gérard Lorenzoni explains. Gérard is our master chef, and an artist who uses the region's finest products to create masterpieces based on tradition but with a modern touch.  All the products he uses are carefully chosen for their freshness, lightness and flavor.
 
 
 
Corsica is mountains and sea, and its cuisine is a reflection of its character.  But sometimes tradition needs to be lightened up a bit, so we've done away with all the excess  fat.  Now it's hard to say which is most popular at L'Arbousier: twice-cooked squab with a simple myrtle wine sauce, roasted loin of lamb with rosemary, thick aiguillettes of gulf bass in pepperonade, or grilled John Dory steak with its bruccio fritter and natural juice thickened with fresh butter.  In any case, it's the  fine Corsican products we use that give our dishes their inimitable flavor.
