Menus & wines

Through his pure, delicate and iodized cuisine, the chef imagines a menu that is evermore eco-friendly as he pushes 'zero-waste' recipes to (and beyond) the limit. In addition to concern for the environment, you’ll enjoy a real taste discovery, where fabulous species of fish which are still rather unknown, such as whiting and wrasse, are centre staged.
