He only uses freshly picked herbs, vegetables, and fruit, which are organically grown. Guests are welcome to enjoy a stroll in our vegetable and herb gardens and indulge in the natural aromas that linger around.

We serve irresistible Unplugged Cuisine in which Fernand plays with seemingly contrasting flavours and ingredients, to blend them into everlasting memories for your tastebuds! Fernand's cuisine is ultra-elegant, but nevertheless generous.
