The cream of Parisian society descends on the Côte d'Azur, stopping off for a gourmet break in Saulieu, from Mistinguett to Sacha Guitry, American stars such as Vivien Light and Gary Cooper to the princes of Spain and Prince Rainer of Monaco.

This great chef has received every prize and award there is, including three Michelin stars. Since then, Bernard Loiseau has taken over the reins, bringing prestige to the restaurant and transforming it into a temple of gastronomy. He retired in 1964 and collaborated with Henry Clos-Jouve to write "Ma cuisine", a book of recipes and memories.
