The Restaurant
Le Clos des Sens, a discreet historic manor dating back to 1866, is situated in the upper reaches of Annecy. Overlooking Lake Annecy and facing the Bauge Mountains, the restaurant holds three Michelin stars. Chef Franck Derouet and his associate Thomas Lorival cultivate a culinary world focused on vegetables and the lake, with a locavore philosophy; ingredients come from their garden or within 100 kilometers. Seasonal fruits vegetables flowers and herbs punctuate each tasting menu, adding a poetic modern art flourish. The restaurant's work with fish from the lake involves reflection about texture and cooking methods, resulting in dishes like raw fera enhanced by a powerful garum, fermented over several weeks, or aged pike grilled like red meat. To respect the seasons, the chef may introduce carnivorous notes, particularly during the angling close season. The establishment offers "food and jus" pairings of vegetable stocks broths and herbal teas with different dishes that explore new tasting and aromatic horizons, celebrating the camaraderie that motivates the kitchen and front of house teams.
