Chef Christophe Raoux
Alain Ducasse's disciple, this native of the Vendée region who was named ‘Meilleur Ouvrier de France’ in 2015, loves nature, fine ingredients and the effervescence of Champagne. This marks the first time he settles in the region, curious and eager to bring out the best of this exceptional terroir that he has always cherished.
To start things off, abalone from Brittany will be pampered with artichoke and Petrossian royal ossetra caviar. Sand carrots will be nestled in vegetable notes with pumpkin seeds, candied corn silvers and smoked pike roe. Beautiful Icelandic langoustines cooked Thermidor-style will be infatuated with a Béarnaise sauce with Pedro Ximénez aged Jerez vinegar.
A Brittany blue lobster ravioli will flirt with foie gras from Aveyron and a sprig of tarragon. The Segala veal fillet will be enchanted by marinated maïtaké mushrooms.
French partridge will grow wings with its juice reduced with juniper berries.
