A few weeks ago we were invited to an exceptional dinner at Passage 53 for an exceptional guest: Relais & Châteaux.
Needless to say, the kitchen at Passage 53 impressed us with the precision of its decorations and the workmanship of its materials.
Relais & Châteaux is an exclusive collection of over 520 of the finest hotels and gourmet restaurants in 60 countries.
Created in France in 1954, the association’s mission is to promote a unique art of living throughout the world by selecting establishments of excellence and authenticity.
It’s in this setting that, for the third year running, Relais & Châteaux celebrates the arrival of fine weather. Golden sunshine, azure skies and green grasses invite you to savor the moment, in the great outdoors! Every Saturday and Sunday in June, in France, Switzerland and Liechtenstein, the establishments in the collection invite you to revive the delicious tradition of Déjeuners sur l’Herbe: original picnic baskets full of flavor, concocted by our Chefs from local produce, at a single price and free for children.
The best of our gourmet heritage to enjoy with family and friends, in a magical location in the countryside, in their gardens or less than 30 minutes away, chosen for the occasion by our Aubergistes and Restaurateurs.
A sneak preview of what the chefs have in store for you: Breton lobster recipe on a Belle-Île en Mer beach (Relais & Châteaux Castel Clara Thalasso & Spa in Bangor), lavaret burger on the shores of Lac du Bourget (Relais & Châteaux Ombremont in Le Bourget-du-Lac), Véraz trout in the heart of the Jura nature park (Relais & Châteaux Jiva Hill Park Hotel in Crozet), champagne and cookies from Reims overlooking the vineyards (Relais & Châteaux Royal Champagne in Champillon), goats and grilled vegetables by the pond (Relais & Châteaux Domaine des Hauts de Loire in Onzain), truffle pâté en croûte in the vineyards of Vézelay (Relais & Châteaux L’Espérance in Saint-Père-sous-Vézelay), marbled ham club sandwich on the Corton mountain (Relais & Châteaux Hostellerie de Levernois), vegetable garden greens in the terraces of Grasse (Relais & Châteaux La Bastide Saint-Antoine ), tomatoes, spring lamb and local melon in a mill overlooking the Mediterranean (Relais & Châteaux Hôtel Villa Belrose in Saint-Tropez), Corsican charcuterie and cheeses in the maquis of the Bonifato forest (Relais & Châteaux La Signoria in Calvi)…
Everywhere, the perfect harmony between a place, its guests and their environment to discover or rediscover the Art of living and Relais & Châteaux cuisine in a new way. Authentic pleasures to be shared as a matter of urgency.
One-off price: €45 per person (free for children under 10, with a limit of 3 children per couple).
