Throughout the week, Chef Arnal worked the most subliminal, flavourful and perfumed fruits and vegetables into his cuisine, announcing the arrival of spring: an ode to produce that can only usually be found in La Chassagnette’s dishes.
Far away from the Camargue and his garden-orchard, Chef Arnal needed to find a quality supplier. He naturally turned towards Alain Cohen, cofounder of the Comptoir des Producteurs shop and market gardener of Saint-Eustache orchards.
He nonetheless brought some of his flagship produce from his organic garden in the Camargue, such as red rice flour and candied lemon to add a meridional flavour to the local products. It was a short week, but it allowed gastronomy lovers to “savour” La Chassagnette spirit in Paris.
