La Table du Cantemerle restaurant

On the occasion of the anniversary of the hotel, the owners and chef Jérôme Heraud launched the new season of the gourmet restaurant La Table du Cantemerle. Chef Jérôme Héraud advocates the values of authenticity, hedonism and Provençal charm and draws his inspiration in the natural and Provencal atmosphere where he created a garden with herbs: thyme, bergamot, mint, planted around the patio and pool. This fan of terroir product takes special care to find suppliers loving their products. The chef offers an inventive menu, inspired by sea and terroir: Ravioli with “smoked on the spot” Shrimp and creamy Bisque with Lemongrass; grilled Ombrine, Eggplant caviar, Parmesan cheese and Citrus. The pastry chef Anne-Laure Schirrer offers a dark Chocolate Coque of raw Sao Tome ganache, heart of passion and prasla.
Jerome Héraud received in July 2013, the title of Maître Restaurateur.
