Chef de service : 1 restaurant Élodie Ramsamy entered the restaurant business by chance, and for over 10 years has been blossoming at Le Quai, one of Maison Chabran's restaurants.

Presentation

Élodie Ramsamy, daughter of a plasterer-painter and an administrative executive in the education sector, discovered her passion for service during a stay in England. "After my baccalaureate in literature, I wanted to go and work in England for a few months. It was either as an au pair or as a waitress if you didn't have any qualifications.I spent six wonderful months in the north of the country before returning to France. "

She and Carole Chabranmake a great team

She then enrolled in a BTS at the Lycée hôtelier Bellerive in Vienne, and worked every weekend at the Domaine de Clairefontaine in Chonas-l'Amballan. After some experience, notably at Le Beau Rivage in Condrieu, Élodie Ramsamy joined Le Quai in Tain-l'Hermitage, one of the five restaurants owned by the Chabranfamily. Having grown up on the Hermitage hillside, she now lives just across the river in Tournon-sur-Rhône.

Her meeting with Carole Chabran was decisive: "Sometimes, without really knowing why, the current passes immediately between two people," she confides. I'm blossoming in this human-scale establishment, where I hold the position of front-of-house manager.My husband is the head chef, and we both manage to reconcile family life, with our two young children, and professional life in an environment we particularly enjoy." Gault&Millau awarded her the Accueil Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes 2025 trophy .
