Located at the entrance to the old village of Mougins, Alexandre and Maxime’s restaurant strikes an excellent balance between artisanal craftsmanship and the expectations of a sophisticated, international clientele. The ingredients are top-notch—whether you choose à la carte or a set menu—meticulously prepared with great taste by Chef Doryan Despaux, along with exquisite pastries by Grégory Sordillon. Start with the exquisite milk-fed veal Caesar salad with romaine lettuce, veal tartare, and Caesar dressing, followed by wagyu sashimi with pickled daikon and an Asian gel. Next, try the line-caught pollock cooked at a low temperature with aji amarillo mussels and seaweed, or the pan-seared Polmard foie gras with anticuchera sauce and pressed potatoes. Don’t miss Grégory Sordillon’s signature dessert: a superb seasonal soufflé.
