Le Figuier de Saint-Esprit

"Straddling the ramparts of the old town, between the Picasso Museum and the Marché Provençal, this place is redolent of Provence! The fig tree gracing the patio is just the start. At the helm of this family-run country house is Christian Morisset, whose curly moustache has almost become part of the local heritage. With his wife holding the fort front of house, and assisted in the kitchen by his son, the chef loves to cook with fine, tasty ingredients, which he selects every week at the Old Antibes market and the Forville Market in Cannes. His squid-ink cuttlefish cannelloni with a shellfish jus made with fresh basil leaves and his saddle of lamb cooked in Vallauris clay have become real signature dishes." - Michelin Inspector

"Le Figuier de Saint-Esprit Down a cobblestone street and through a stone arch, a narrow terrace and lovely fig tree mark the entrance to Le Figuier de Saint-Esprit. Famous both for hismagnificentmustache and exceptional cooking, chef Christian Morisset guides your appetite on a culinary adventure with creative dishes that zing, like a salty-sweet sautéed foie gras with figs or teppanyaki branzino. The chef’s sweets do not disappoint, either, particularly the wild strawberry parfait and the molten chocolate cake decorated with a white chocolate jasmine tea heart."
