La Table de Xavier Mathieu

★ Michelin€€€€Modern Cuisine, Mediterranean Cuisine

Raised in Marseille, Xavier Mathieu is a true-blue Provençal lad. He was introduced to the world of haute cuisine by master chef, Roger Vergé, a family friend.

The chef, who sports a distinctive shock of white hair, breathes new life into Provençal culinary traditions, giving each dish a new twist on its original form.
