La Dame de Pic is characterized by a relentless pursuit of complex, aromatic flavors, with a strong focus on embracing bitterness as a guiding principle in culinary creations. The menu showcases a masterful blend of ingredients to uncover the inherent bitterness in various products, enhancing the dining experience with sharp or tart notes that add depth and a multi-sensorial dimension to the dishes. The restaurant’s ambiance mirrors this approach, with a timeless, elegant design featuring soft pink hues, rich plums, and metallic accents, creating a powerful, charismatic, yet elegantly feminine dining environment.
The Chef
Anne-Sophie Pic, a three-Michelin-starred French chef, continues her family’s culinary legacy that has spanned over a century, with her great-grandmother establishing L’Auberge du Pin in 1889. Hailing from a lineage of Michelin-starred chefs, Anne-Sophie’s upbringing in her family’s restaurant in Valence, south-east France, has roots dating back to its first three Michelin stars in 1934 under her grandfather’s guidance.
