The chef of Le George, at the Four Seasons George V in Paris, is also setting up his pots and pans overlooking the Mediterranean. An arrival that further confirms the Principality's gastronomic ambitions.

He’s everywhere. On Instagram, first of all, where his pasta comes to life with an almost contagious generosity. But it would be a mistake to reduce Simone Zanoni to his videos: behind these stagings lies a precise chef, trained to exacting standards, now based at the Four Seasons Hotel George Vwith a Michelin star. He is also in Monaco, where gastronomy is a serious business. Alongside Alain Ducasse, a leading figure at the Louis XV, and Yannick Alléno, firmly established at the Hôtel Hermitage, Simone Zanoni completes an already impressive cast.

This is the Société des Bains de Mer is orchestrating this new score, entrusting him with the kitchens of La Vigie. An address set high above the sea, at the end of the Monte-Carlo Beach peninsula. We can already imagine a cuisine capable of going from a risotto revisited carbonara-style to a perfectly executed cacio e pepe, with that extra soul that makes all the difference. Monaco continues to densify its culinary landscape; in this balancing act between prestige and desire, Simone Zanoni’s arrival rings true.
