La Maison Aribert, beauty serving goodness

La Maison Aribert, beauty serving goodness

Stéphane Bréhier | 10/22/24

Christophe Aribert has imagined his home as a sanctuary. Where everything is designed, conceived, made and then implemented responsibly. To serve both man and nature. Only 5 years old, Maison Aribert is already a model of its kind. Let's sleep at the chef's place.

There are those who talk and stand idly by, not always knowing how to set their ideas in motion, however luminous they may be, those who demonstrate and then act, and finally those who babble little, but always push the cursor of their desires a little further. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that Christophe Aribert is one of them. He could have stayed in the warmth of this Grand Hôtel, already in Uriage-les-Bains, where he was already proving his worth and making his mark on even the most obtuse of minds. After nearly twenty years as second-in-command, and then at the helm of the Terrasses d'Uriage, he felt it was time to move into his own premises, as " an obvious imperative ".

La Maison Aribert will open its doors in 2019, after three years of construction and a major investment (5 million euros). He remains discreet up there, at the crossroads of the Vercors, Belledonne and Chartreuse massifs. And yet, few chefs have been so far-sighted and coherent in implementing their wishes - to support craftsmanship, to help the transition to farming, to ensure well-being through food, to bring out the best in people - and to do so with such foresight and coherence.and actions, principles - ethics, transmission, sustainability... - and reality.
