A discreet white property with blue shutters, typical of the Vendée region, is home to La Marine, the restaurant of Céline and Alexandre Couillon. This property, located directly on the small port of Herbaudière, at the north-west tip of the island of Noirmoutier, has become something of a mecca for gastronomy. From his parents, the chef not only inherited a restaurant, but also their passion for the sea (his father was a shrimp fisherman) along with strong values of hospitality and respect for produce. He runs the establishment with his wife Céline, as Maître de Maison. For his bistro-inspired menu, Chef Couillon selects only the finest seafood cultivated sustainably. Even vegetables come from his own kitchen garden. Guests wishing to stay the night will appreciate Maison Moizeau which adjoins the restaurant–its rooms feature bright marine-inspired décor, polished parquet floors, white walls and natural materials, and open their windows onto the port and its boats.

Gastronomy is fundamental to the history of Relais & Châteaux, which celebrates its 70th anniversary this year. It was there at the very beginning, with the fledgling Association uniting not just singular hotels but great restaurants too. Relais & Châteaux chefs across the globe interpret this in their own unique way, celebrating local ingredients and perpetuating the food cultures that surround them. From Japan to The Netherlands, New Zealand and Ecuador, we offer a glimpse into the kitchens of a collection of culinary artists and gastronomic visionaries.
