Brest - Eating
Eating out in Brest is serious business and understandably with the city being on the edge of the ocean and so nautically themed, fish is a speciality on most restaurants’ menus. The choice ranges from the most delicious sole dishes to seafood. Wine, of course, is important too and most restaurants have impressive lists of French vintages. For a snack, head for any one of the city’s many crêperies.
