Fish and seafood 3

Immerse yourself in a world where the freshness of the ocean meets the elegance of contemporary gastronomy. Discover the balance of delicate textures, rich seafood flavours, and techniques that transform every dish into a truly memorable culinary experience.

Inspired by the cuisines of France, the Mediterranean, and Asia, you will create a menu that combines classic recipes with a modern twist, bold flavours, and elegant presentation. Spend an evening dedicated to exceptional food, new culinary skills, and the pleasure of creating dishes using the very best the sea has to offer.

• Calamari with Provençal Pastis Sauce – tender calamari served in a creamy sauce infused with the delicate anise flavour of pastis – an elegant dish with the character of Southern France.
