Authenticiy, sharing and culinary pleasures

During the Festival, talented chefs will perform gastronomic feats each evening by creating dinners on previously unknown “pianos”.

The chefs’ week of generosity and sharing began with a symphony of fine food.

Patrick Raingeard, godfather of the 2023 edition, gave his precious advice on how to make the recipes even more tasty.

Mise en bouche: Tartine of Banon, emulsion potato. “In the spirit of conviviality of a Savoyard fondue: the warm,
gourmet potato steals the show from the cheese and the country bread is enhanced by the Banon (goat cheese), onion and hazelnut.

Starter: “The walk in the forest begins with the meeting of the Cians trout married to its warm husband the fir tree,
then a subtle union between autumn squash and winter fir on a bed of chestnuts, under the jealous eyes of the country cromesquis.”
