Oysters and seafood tables in Lille

Two hours from the Opal Coast, Lille has no excuse to ignore the sea. And in summer, it is the perfect season for a seafood platter or a dozen oysters on a terrace.

Leading the way, L'Atelier Iodé and its oyster selection explained like a wine tasting. Then the seafood references: Les Petits Poissons and its catch of the day, Bistrot Iodé and its weekly surprise menu, Krevette which marries fishmonger and Japanese grill, and Laksøn for a Nordic detour. Five tables, one heading: the product, ultra-fresh.
