Born in Morocco, I grew up surrounded by the heady aromas of family cooking. After an initial spell in IT, I opened a restaurant which triggered an all-consuming passion compelling me to perfect my skills first in Marseille, then in Germany, before joining star-rated addresses in France.

I met with the Management of the Beauvallon Collection, Amaury Rostagnat and Lucie Brindjonc. They wanted to appoint a woman to run the kitchens. I was convinced by their inspiring vision and commitment to values I deeply share: excellence, respect for products from the terroir, and warm hospitality.

To tempt the tastebuds and captivate our guests in a ballet of emotions, transforming each meal into an extraordinary gustatory voyage. I also take care to maintain a serene, zen ambiance for my kitchen brigade so that each member of my team finds fulfillment in a caring environment.

It is a mixture enriched by my Moroccan and French experiences. I am especially drawn to using Asian techniques and spices to enhance fresh, local produce. My cuisine can be seen as an invitation to travel, while remaining anchored in well-balanced flavours.

My choices revolve around the selection of products and suppliers. I give priority to seasonality and respect for the environment by opting for short circuits to minimize our ecological impact. Each ingredient from our garden is chosen for its freshness.
