The Chef
The Chef Christophe GAVOT has managed the kitchen at La Villa Gallici's restaurant since 2003. With his team, he offers refined cuisine which changes with the seasons and gives pride of place to quality produce, whilst also focusing on cooking techniques and seasoning. Every day, his aim is to achieve excellence, precision and a taste for perfection which he has acquired as a result of his experience with several prestigious French Chefs.
After training at the Hotel School in Monaco, our Chef started his career in Corsica and Switzerland before setting sail aboard the Mermoz cruise ship under Jean Abauzit, Master Chef of France.
On his return to dry land, Christophe Gavot joined the team of Jean-Pierre Pestre, Master Chef of France, as a Sous-Chef. At the time, the latter was at the helm of the Vista Palace Hotel in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, above Monaco.
Christophe Gavot later pursued his career alongside Frédéric Milan for the opening of the Relais & Châteaux de Mirambeau.
Today, the Chef shares his experience with his team at our restaurant in Aix to which he is particularly attached.
