The story
In Bessines, just outside Niort, David and Laurence Seguin run L'Adress, a modern cuisine restaurant that has earned a Michelin Recommended distinction. Their philosophy is simple: the pleasure of giving pleasure — a sentiment they extend to couples, families, and groups alike.
L'Adress presents what the Seguins call a "gastronomic journey of surprise, emotion, and flavor." The cooking is rooted in fresh, seasonal ingredients, prepared with precision and a clear respect for the product. The restaurant’s recognition by Maîtres Restaurateurs, Collège Culinaire de France, and Teritoria underlines its commitment to craftsmanship and authentic hospitality.
The menu changes regularly. A past Easter takeaway menu gives a taste of their style: an aperitif plate of five pieces per person, white asparagus with shrimp and a vegetable hummus, duck foie gras with orange and vanilla, crispy quail filet with spring vegetables, and a strawberry-basil dome with white chocolate mousse. The cooking is thoughtful, balanced, and seasonally driven.
L'Adress also caters events for 8 to 100 guests — weddings, family reunions, professional seminars — making it a versatile choice for special occasions in the Deux-Sèvres region.
The restaurant’s Michelin Recommended award reflects a consistent standard of quality. Combined with the Seguins’ warm welcome and the airy, modern setting, L'Adress is a confident addition to Niort’s dining scene. Open Tuesday lunch through Saturday evening, it invites diners to let themselves be surprised.
