Cuisine blending Martinique & Mediterranean flavors, sea view
"After moving from Martinique to Monaco and from Alsace to Belgium, Marcel Ravin, who exhibits a distinct culinary personality, signs off on creative cuisine that transports us to the West Indies. With flawless technical prowess (superb sauces), he recounts his personal history, including his happy youth spent in Martinique. He references the dishes cooked by his grandmother (calalou, blaff, "next day's bread"), which he reinterprets with panache, incorporating the fine ingredients of these parts: poultry and veal from Piedmont, fish from the Mediterranean, vegetables and aromatic herbs from the kitchen garden. An appealing cuisine bursting with West Indian flavours, nicely rounded off by the fruity and spicy creations of pastry chef Floriane Grand. Sit back and enjoy this culinary experience in the lavish setting of the Monte Carlo Bay Hotel and Resort, on the edge of the Larvotto Peninsula, with a superb terrace opening out onto the sea." - Michelin Inspector
"In Monaco, eclecticism and sensitivity define Marcel Ravin’s cuisine as he takes diners to discover his native Martinique and childhood culinary memories. Martinique flavors and recipes are revisited and complemented with Mediterranean products, yielding original, exotic creations like green vegetable and chayote soup with lightly seared red mullet strips and smoked tea; marinated murex sea snails with spicy coconut water, cockles and urchin tongues; and toasted sweet potato brioche with pistachio crumbs." - Le Guide MICHELIN
"Supper time In an area about the size of Central Park, Monaco boasts 4 Michelin star restaurants. Chef Paolo Sari’s Elsa in the swanky 1930's designed Monte Carlo Beach Hotel is the world's first 100% organic Michelin star restaurant. Rock star chef Alain Ducasse has earned a prestigious 3 stars for the opulent dining room of the Louis XV in the mythic Hôtel de Paris . His close colleague, Joel Robuchon has a tempting 2 stars with a more relaxed, open kitchen in the Hôtel Metropole, where he also oversees the 1 star Yoshi, a collision of east meets west Japanese inspired, Mediterranean cuisine. Hôtel Hermitage's 1 star Vistamar plates up the best, highest quality ingredients, served on a terrace over looking Port Hercule. No stars, but plenty of succulent, tropical sunshine can be savoured at Marcel Ravin’s Blue Bay, at the Monte Carlo Bay resort, where the chef infuses traditional French cuisine with the flavours of his native Martinique.
