AMBATOLOAKA
BAOBAB CAFÉ
The restaurant of a real cook who loves his work and adds his philosophy on quality, health, flavors, healthy breeding, so much that one could almost read on his menu that no animals has been mistreated. He created a self-contained farm where the animals flourish with space and are natural fed not their own super organic crops that goes without saying and spirulina rather than antibiotics. The result is a very nice menu of his products worked with passion. Almost everything is “homemade” rillettes, foie gras, terrines, quails of pigeons, ducks, etc… It’s tasty, original, inventive. A delight not to be missed.
