"Review written by Fabio Verdiglione, DadCook and was written based on my personal experience: An unforgettable evening at Lou Papounet : an ode to sea bass and beauty There is something magical about dining outdoors, under a starry sky, with the sweet buzz of the square in the background. At Lou Papounet , this magic merges with culinary excellence, creating an experience that satisfies all the senses. The undisputed protagonist of the evening was the whole sea bass. Presented at the table with an elegance that anticipated the pleasure to come, the fish was cooked to perfection: the crispy, golden skin encased tender, juicy meat, which fell apart at the simple touch of the fork. Each bite was an explosion of delicate flavours, enhanced by a light seasoning that respected its natural goodness. But Lou Papounet is not just sea bass. The fish menu offers a variety of delicacies, all prepared with the same care and skill. And if the food is a pleasure for the palate, the view from the square is a balm for the eyes. The square, lively but not chaotic, offers an ever-changing spectacle, with the lights reflecting on the facades of the buildings and the people walking, creating a lively and relaxing atmosphere at the same time. The service, attentive and discreet, completes the experience. The staff is friendly and helpful, ready to satisfy every request with a smile. You feel pampered, but never suffocated, free to enjoy the evening at your own pace. Lou Papounet is a place where time seems to stop. It is an oasis of peace and pleasure, where you can abandon yourself to the pleasures of good food and beauty. If you are looking for an unforgettable culinary experience in Mandelieu-La Napoule, you cannot miss this gem. Whole sea bass, in particular, is an experience that will remain in your heart (and palate) for a long time."
