What is he up to?
Dominique Gauthier has worked in some of France's most prestigious establishments, and is no stranger to the codes of haute cuisine. Stocks. Sauces. Precise cooking and the right pairings. He likes to brighten up this venerable register with beautiful Mediterranean notes. But also with exotic accents brought back from his travels in Thailand.
During his years in Geneva, the chef has also forged links with the cream of regional suppliers and selected the finest local produce: vegetables from Pierre Gallay, poultry from Nant d'Avril and beef from the Minder family. And let's not forget Niels Rodin's magical citrus fruits and Stéphanie's honey. This is the Gauthier style, all elegance and gourmandise, never flashy, never provocative, which sheds new light on classic gastronomy.
