The vision of chef Adrien Descouls

"At BASALTE, I invite you to discover my vision of our terroir, based on sharing, conviviality and the fruits of the labour of our local artisans - from producers, freshwater fishermen, market gardeners, beekeepers, breeders and winegrowers to our cheese producers. What I want you to experience at BASALTE is a simple, emotionally-charged cuisine, deeply rooted in its terroir. A shared culinary experience, a moment of generosity."
