La Bigorne Restaurant
La Bigorne
A family-run budget restaurant in a garden on the main street, offering affordable lobster, coconut-milk dishes, and fresh juice, with warm hospitality from the owners.
La Bigorne is on the N21 road along the main street of Ambodifotatra. The restaurant is set in a garden, and there are simple guest bungalows behind it. The owners, Chantale and Benoît, are warm hosts, and their home-style cooking has some creative touches. Lobster, coconut-milk dishes, and fresh juices are the most popular. Romazava, a traditional Malagasy stew, comes in a generous portion for about 10,000 Ariary. Petit Futé praises it as simply decorated but extremely good value. Some say service is slow. It is a few minutes' walk from the harbour.
