MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

One Star: High quality cooking

Raised in Marseille, Xavier Mathieu is a true-blue Provençal lad. He was introduced to the world of haute cuisine by master chef, Roger Vergé, a family friend. He went on to complete his apprenticeship with Joël Robuchon in Paris, before returning to the splendid family home nestling in the Luberon scrubland. The chef, who sports a distinctive shock of white hair, breathes new life into Provençal culinary traditions, giving each dish a new twist on its original form. Tian of black olives from the garden, leg of lamb from the Alpilles cooked in warm sand of the garrigue, two-course pieds et paquets (Marseille-style mutton feet and tripe). Surprising recipes, always with a personal touch, to be sampled in the swish exclusive setting of a luxurious drystone bastide whose foundations date back to the Knights of the Order of Malta.
