Gault&Millau's review
14/20
Chef's Restaurant Chef Geoffrey Poësson, who seduced us at La Badiane, becoming our "Grand de Demain" of the day, is moving closer to the sea with the waterfront hotel-restaurant, La Belle Aurore, which he has just invested with his creative energy. Roger Vergé's former chef explores sea and land with precision, cooking to the second and using clear juices to create a joyful cuisine. The 5-course Balade Gourmande with an attentive cheese stop, at €135, augurs the best, pan-fried gnocchi on a woodland trilogy, sautéed girolles, raw button mushrooms and pickled shimeji, on shavings of house-dried duck and meat jus and parsley emulsion, the bluffly simple Peach where five fish compete in flavor with the sole effect of the grill on their flesh, capon, gilthead, bass, tuna and sea bream, escorted by a Paloise sauce (Béarnaise with mint) in a warm sabayon sauce; the playful pigeon with its rosy supreme, the leg confit, the neck stuffed with foie gras and the fin in a croquette, served on a reduced carcass jus with truffles (we'll wait for the melano...)). Finally, the dessert, where orgeat parfait mingles with apricot, burnt, raw and in jelly. The cellar showcases the best of Provence, not forgetting a few nuggets from Bordeaux and Burgundy. Service is both smiling and debonair.
