We may no longer realize how lucky we are to have a Geneva countryside brimming with beautiful, charming inns. When it comes to culinary quality and wine references, the <\/span>Caf\u00e9 de Certoux<\/a> is undoubtedly at the head of the pack. Long under the stewardship of Bernard Livron and his sister Marie-H\u00e9l\u00e8ne, the chef handed over the reins of this elegant country house to his two faithful acolytes on January 1, 2019. A healthy and intelligent handover that allows this gastronomic landmark to write new chapters in its history.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Siphoned paella<\/h2>\n

While a few autumn sunbeams give us the gift of being out and about, the aperitif is still taken on the terrace. It’s a delicious moment of life, when the choice of dishes from a bourgeois menu is made outdoors. A comforting moment, while sipping a few tears of Chasselas from Domaine de la Colombe in F\u00e9chy, the Paccot family’s winegrowing stronghold. The menu is dreamy and includes a number of current culinary references: ceviche of sea bream and mango, crispy gyozas of rabbit and noodles (called “noodles” on the menu) or octopus a la plancha, chorizo and siphoned paella. Original! S\u00e9bastien Vaillend’s commitment to modernity is as subtle as it is technical. <\/p>\n

Even if gastronomic news is discreetly coming to the Caf\u00e9 de Certoux, it’s the suggestions of the moment that are calling out. For example, how could we fail to be seduced by this seasonal offering of po\u00eal\u00e9e de c\u00e8pes en persillade? In the company of a die-hard epicurean, it would be a crime of l\u00e8se-majest\u00e9 to pass up the fricassee of frogs’ legs. Lightly garlicky and marbled, this typically bistro-style delicacy is best enjoyed with the fingers. The pleasure of cooking sometimes goes against the grain! It’s a loup en croute de sel for two that quickly wins unanimous approval. Sublimely cooked, pinkish at the bone as it should be, it is first presented in the dining room, masterfully uncut, and served in its simplest form, topped with a magnificent beurre blanc. This gourmet moment confirms the talent and experience of our chef. <\/p>\n
