"This Bourg-en-Bresse native whose ancestors used to make lemonade and sell coal has come a long way! That said, Georges Blanc's grandmother was once named best cook in the world by food writer Curnonsky. Nowadays the chef is at the head of a small empire in Vonnas. Out of a 100m2 house, he has built an estate of several hectares: the illuminated village gardens and houses are a magical sight at night. But the show also takes place at your table, where the Bresse province is represented by its emblematic poularde AOP, and deep-flavoured sauces and skilful cooking techniques come into their own. Georges Blanc is the oldest Michelin-starred establishment in the world, having received its first star in 1929. It will also delight fans of fine wines, with a wine list to make Bacchus blush." - Michelin Inspector
"In 1902, Mère Blanc (Élisa Blanc) opened La Mere Blanc in Vonnas (65km outside Lyon), which was one of the very first restaurants to receive Two MICHELIN Stars." - Sophie Friedman
"A three-Michelin-star establishment in Vonnas, France where Schlosser apprenticed alongside restaurateur Georges Blanc; the training there underscores the idea that a strong teacher and the right environment are foundational to a chef’s development, setting high standards for technique, discipline, and professional expectations that shaped Schlosser’s later career." - Eater Video
"The food writer Curnonsky once dubbed Georges Blanc's grandmother the "best cook in the world". Tradition, albeit revisited, is still the order of the day at his Vonnas restaurant. The menu offers classics such as, Bresse chicken and rich sauces prepared with the expertise of a great chef. A true gourmet experience." - Michelin Guide Digital-Singapore
