La Chassagnette viewed by "Le Monde"
Daily newspaper Le Monde gastronomic reviewer, Jean-Claude Ribaut, wrote in glowing terms an article entitled « La Chassagnette cultivates the cooking of the garden » in the June, 28th 2007 edition.
" The in vogue table, outside the walls of Arles, is La Chassagnette, a former sheepfold turned into an authentic living place(…). The most extraordinary thing within this housed land, is the organic vegetable garden, thought by Maja Hoffmann, whose 180 vegetables and herbs species composed the menus of the chef Armand Arnal, 29 years-old, heading the brigade since 2006. Calm and determined, humble, this young chef seeks his inspiration out in the nearly bodily relation he has with the products of the garden" notes Jean Claude Ribaut.
"Four appetizers, many main courses and deserts, different from lunch to diner, are the expression of an authentic way of cooking, law key and gourmand. A young sommelier gives precious attention to the regional wine cellar. The amiable service is led by Michel Mialhe, an other one coming from Ducasse’s", highlights the reviewer from the prestigious Parisian daily newspaper.
