"Top 10 restaurants in Marseille: L'Epuisette - Chef Guillaume Sourrieu, who trained with Bernard Loiseau, among others, works exclusively with the local small-boat catch of the day to create signature dishes such as his shrimp terrine and slow-cooked sea bass, along with local seafood stews/soups like bouillabaisse."
"L’Epuisette serves the city's finest bouillabaisse. Locals come here for the expert take on traditional bouillabaisse ($78), a two-course meal of an aromatic soup served with toasted baguette slices covered in a spicy rouille, followed by four or five types of fish."
"The broth is wonderful and perfumed with pastis, saffron and garlic. The congel eels, chapon, grendin, rascasse and st. pierre are lined up fileted on your plate waiting a few ladle fulls of broth to be spooned over:"
"The excellence of the bouillabaisse was only enhanced by the view across the pale green waves to the Château d'If."
"The 10 Best Restaurants And Cafés In Marseille: L'Epuisette - His signature bouillabaisse, which he serves in three steps, breaking the traditional Marseille recipe down into three aromatic fish courses, is a perfect example of his approach."
