A refreshing change from most of the restaurants and menus in this area. This is a busy tourist place in summer (home of the famous Byrrh winery and exhibition) and there are plenty of competing restaurants, so the owners have tried to be different, both in food and style. They present a range of dishes from around the world, based partly own their own travels, and do so in a modern, wine bar/brasserie setting. The place is small, with an open kitchen and all cooking and serving is carried out by the two owners. Each day 's offering (lunch and evening) is based around a choice of three starters, three main dishes and two desserts, with each option coming from a different country. They completely change the menu each week (which must be quite a challenge). On the day we went (Thursday lunch time) dishes came from Venezuela, Morocco, Italy, Spain, France and (the chef says he tries to add a grain de folie sometimes) a Scottish version of tiramisu. La patronne explains the menu and origin of each dish before you order. You can have anything from a single dish to an all included tasting menu (with two dishes costing 12.50, three 13.50, three with wine and coffee 19.50 all in Euros) or just have a glass of wine, and they take their wine seriously, with an carefully chosen selection from local producers. The reason we went was to deliberately try something out of the ordinary, so we did not expect everything to be perfectly to our taste. We went Venzuelan and while the starter, plaintain fritters with a piquant sauce was merely interesting, the main course was delightful salmon and hake cooked en papiette , in coconut oil, with mild onions and smoked paprika seasoning. This alone justified our decision to come. The menu won 't be to everyone 's liking, but if you fancy being a bit daring, give it a try (it certainly won 't break the bank, we spent 44 Euros for two lunches, including two glasses of wine and service).

My husband and I had a wonderful evening at Moana Nui last night. We were warmly welcomed, and our hostess explained the menu to us. This week the countries were India, Belize and Baleariac islands (Spain). We chose Gaspachio and Ceviche de crevette as our starters which were absolutely excellent. For mains we chose Salmon Tika Massala and Chicken, rice and beans, again both were delicious. Both the chef and his wife were very friendly and chatty. We so loved it that we have booked to go back on Saturday. You can see, and taste their passion for food!

I have to admit that the chicken with coconut sauce Tahiti style was the best chicken dish I've eaten so far. All the dishes were original and delicious and we felt really welcome in this small family run restaurant.

Brilliant food featuring weekly food themes from around the world. Excellent, friendly service in a cosy atmosphere. Well worth the two minute walk from the centre of Thuir. Highly recommended.
