Auberge du Père Bise, Talloires, France : Jean Sulpice, a chef in touch with his roots
"Jean Sulpice, the chef at Auberge du Père Bise, a unique spot steeped in history, where some important moments in French gastronomy played out. The large restaurant building, completely refurbished by Magali and Jean Sulpice, stands on the shore of Lake Annecy, in Talloires Bay, a sort of miraculous Eden with a Corsican feel. His cooking features freshwater fish, aromatic plants from his kitchen garden, cheeses and wild flowers from the mountain pastures and elsewhere, and vegetables and meat from animals reared on the plains." - Georges Rouzeau
