pot-au-feu-jardin-des-plumes
At Jardin des Plumes, David Galienne cultivates a sensitive cuisine, nourished by the Normandy region and its aromatic garden, as in this springtime revisitation of pot-au-feu.
in Giverny, in the tranquil setting of the Jardin des Plumes, David Galienne pays homage to his native Normandy. In this land of many resources, the chef composes a generous and committed cuisine, nourished by the seasons, the herbs of his aromatic garden - which boasts over 150 varieties - and the work of local producers. His ambition: to awaken the taste buds, introduce new flavors and raise awareness of more conscious cooking.
With this in mind, the chef is committed to reworking certain emblematic French dishes, adapting them to the seasons. Pot-au-feu, a childhood memory and winter staple, is transformed here into a spring salad: fresh, melt-in-the-mouth and crunchy at the same time, it's conceived as a little garden on the plate.
