His testimony:
Take pleasure in meeting and meeting around a table, sharing the same bread, choosing a dish; a recipe behind which will be a craftsman, a farmer, a breeder, a market gardener … it is also to realize that our profession of cook allows us to bring together different professions, all punctuated by an intense passion. Cooking is the meeting of passionate people who will forge a solid experience, it is the work of qualitative products and as local as possible, with a personal and identifiable touch.
Since 2015, I have been the chef at the Auberge du Weight Public, my role is to be in the continuity of the inspiration of chef Claude Taffarello, and today alongside his daughter Céline Taffarello.
My job is to convey this message within my team, share my passion and my experience, and provoke emotion among our guests.
Cooking is a matter of taste, but the human message is all the more important.
