Michelin-starred Chef Simone Zanoni will be showcased at the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel, where he will present his signature dishes from Le George. The event will take place from Thursday, August 3 to Sunday, August 6, 2024, at the hotel’s renowned Club Dauphin and Le Bar. Guests will have the opportunity to indulge in Chef Simone’s award-winning Mediterranean cuisine, with Club Dauphin offering sunny dishes for lunch and Le Bar serving flavorful bites for aperitivo.
Chef Simone Zanoni, who has been the head chef at the acclaimed Michelin-starred restaurant Le George in Four Seasons George V, Paris since 2016, will bring his culinary expertise to the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat. Known for his laidback and friendly demeanor, Chef Simone creates flavorful dishes that reflect the convivial atmosphere of Italy. His modern Mediterranean style cuisine takes guests on a gourmet journey through the French Riviera and northern Italy.
During his four-day residency, guests at the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat will have the chance to savor some of Le George’s most iconic dishes at Club Dauphin. Alongside the restaurant’s vibrant summer menu, a special menu curated by Chef Simone Zanoni will be offered. Starters will include roasted lobster with tomato tian, vitello tonnato featuring cold sliced veal and a creamy tuna and anchovy sauce, and a delectable candied tomato tarte tatin topped with cacio e pepe ice cream.
For the main course, Chef Simone will prepare his renowned agnolotti del plin, which is a braised veal ravioli served with oyster mushrooms and meat jus. Additionally, guests can enjoy a light summer dish of roasted sole with basil vinaigrette. The meal will conclude with a refreshing dessert of strawberry, meringue, and basil, as well as a Piedmont hazelnut and Amalfi lemon creation.
As the sun sets, Le Bar will offer a selection of light bites for aperitivo. Nestled in lush greenery and shaded by Aleppo pine trees, Le Bar provides a stylish terrace with stunning sea views. Guests can enjoy the relaxed and upbeat atmosphere while indulging in expertly crafted Italian-inspired cocktails and Le George’s famous crudo. Simone Zanoni will also showcase his carving skills by preparing Italian culatello at a live station—a prized cold cut served on freshly baked focaccia.
