Let it be for the beef, the veal, the pork, the lamb or the poultries, seasons, food, calmness and the animals living conditions have a much certain impact on the gustatory quality of the meat. For this reason, L’Institution’s Chefs wish to follow through a qualitative approach in the choice of their suppliers. Nature is not a standard product, it’s under the influence of a number of hazards. At L’Institution, we allow us to be out of stock if the animal welfare is not respected. This, to aim to offer only products of excellence.
Red meats

Added to this strict selection, depending on our arrivals, breeds of exception ranked several times among the best meats in the world, such as the Japanese black (origin Japan) and the Rubia Gallega, also named Blonde de Galice (origin Spain), which both make certainly of L’Institution one of the best meat restaurants of the Côte Fleurie !
Milk-fed and
farm-reared veal
Milk-fed veal is an exceptional veal, solely milk-fed. Its meat is very pale, sweet, lighly sugary with an incredible tenderness and juiciness. As for the farm-reared veal, it’s often nursed by its mother during 3 months, then its food is broaden to include grass until it is about 5 months. The result is a very pinky meat, fine, with a beautiful texture and a well-split fat. At the menu, our Chefs propose you a farm-reared veal chop, a veal rump, a calf sweetbread heart apple, whole roast or a veal liver pavé.
Farm pork
Pork breast confit, simple or double pork chop, “Porc d’Antan” …
At L’Institution, pork is farm-reared, generous and… braised to deliver its most beautiful savours ! The Chefs selection goes to the Basque pork of the Abotia domain, raised in the french Basque country. An origin which promises a fresh, marbled, melting and juicy meat, without faux taste but buttery and hazelnut aromas. The Picardy pork or Porc d’Antan as we name it in french, is also a favourite of ours. Cereals-based and flaxseed fed, porks are straw housed as once. The good-structured meat is tender, juicy and its savours are balanced. Proportion between lean and fat is rightly dosed and displays excellent gustatory qualities.
