Mauro Colagreco

  • Une décennie heureuse
 
 colagreco septembre

From Shanghai to Paris via La Plata and Nanjing, this travelling chef is breathing life into fine-dining gems wherever he goes, his latest venture being a restaurant in Beijing. But it's in Menton that the Buenos Aires native established his HQ ten years ago, at the Mirazur that today flaunts two Michelin stars and recently came sixth in the prestigious World’s 50 Best Restaurants classification – scarcely amazing given the individuality of his work! “What characterises my cuisine? Freedom!” he trumpets. “I'm more than happy to ignore the codes and retain only the best of each terroir.” In surf and turf this culinary poet draws his inspiration from surrounding nature so as to deploy a palette of textures and flavours – floral, fruity, woody – that he has made his signature. (Re)discover his highly personal touch all year long through his anniversary menu featuring 10 iconic dishes, including Tarbouriech oyster, shallot cream and iteration of Williams pear, and La Forêt, a sharing platter inspired by foraging cep, chanterelle and horn of plenty mushrooms. Constantly seeking out new challenges, Colagreco is presently preparing to open a Mediterranean restaurant, L’Estivale, at Nice Côte d’Azur airport in May 2017. Watch this space!
