Le Sarkara

Gifted pastry chef Sébastien Vauxion takes guests on a unique journey (with a formula that proved to be trendsetting). His modern, inventive cuisine puts fruit and vegetables centre stage – in fact, this is vegetarian, only without hammering home the point. His highly refined creations are based on complex flavours, each ingredient enhanced by aromatic herbs, spices, citrus fruits and dairy products. Jerusalem artichoke ravioli and cranberries, brown stock and beurre rosé; pan-fried bulbous-rooted chervil with Bauges saffron, sea-buckthorn jus flavoured with orpiment: his "cuisine pâtissière" is the fruit of high-precision work that surprises and enchants. The food and tea pairings are also remarkable, as is the service, which is as rigorous as it is cordial.
