Bistrot L'Esplanade
restaurant in Colomiers
Welcome to the page of our restaurant, Bistrot l’Esplanade, located in Colomiers, where we serve simple and delicious dishes.
Ilan, our Chef, is committed to featuring fresh and local ingredients on the menu. He also regularly offers vegetarian and gluten-free dishes to cater to our diverse clientele. Originally from Réunion Island, the Chef loves working with seafood, which he complements with high-quality products from local producers. I’m thinking, for example, of the Japanese-style trout tataki, currently on the menu.
The Chef’s life journey has also allowed him to explore vegetarian and gluten-free cuisine. He draws inspiration from this to create delicious pastries, but I’ll stop there... Come and discover these surprises during your next visit with us.
See you soon,
Marie-Laure B., Manager of the Toulouse Colomiers establishment.

Our chef
Passionate & Fascinating
Originally from the enchanting island of La Réunion, Ilan Thénor, the Chef du bistrot l’Esplanade, draws extensively from the treasures of "his" cuisine to compose the restaurant's menu. "As the chef of the restaurant, I try to offer a harmonious, modern, and traditional menu," he says.
Falling in love with cooking, "since I was 13," watching his parents behind the stove, Ilan greatly appreciates the taste values of his island while admitting that French cuisine is still his favorite. He finds his inspiration in his childhood memories and culinary discoveries, offering a gastronomic experience rich in flavors.
So don't be surprised, during your tasting at Bistrot l’Esplanade, if your desires to travel come back with every bite...
