Mathieu Durand, chef at “Le Riviera” restaurant, has the amazing talent of being able to combine produce from his native Gironde (foie gras, duck, wild mushrooms …) with the subtly spicy flavours of Provence.
Mathieu inherited his love of fine cuisine from his grandmother. He began his career in Alain Ducasse’s team, at the Hotel Plaza Athénée in Paris, and then completed his gourmet training at “Le Clos de la Violette” in Aix-en-Provence, before becoming chef de cuisine at the restaurant at the hotel Le Pigonnet.
Mathieu’s talents lie in being able to combine flavours and textures in dishes of unmistakable elegance, finesse and creativity.
