Every region has its specialities, and the South-east is no exception.

The Côte d’Azur abounds with incredible establishments. Saint-Tropez, La Seyne-sur-Mer, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Èze, as many locations are there are restaurants.

Sometimes modern, sometimes traditional, Provencal cuisine stands out with dishes composed using herbs, flowers, and seasonal citrus fruits.

Every chef adds their own touch of originality. Some have travelled to the far-off lands of French Polynesia to bring back exotic flavours. Others have been able to create their menus via ultra-short circuits and their permaculture kitchen gardens. Not forgetting an Italian touch in these dishes that really taste of the south.
