During last year’s edition, Heritage Resorts collaborated with local farmers and fishermen to create a menu that highlighted the unique flavours of the Bel Ombre Territory.
This year, Heritage Resorts is taking the sustainable gastronomic celebration to the next level, where guests can expect to experience the intensity of the island of Mauritius while protecting its integrity.
Having received a positive reception last year, chefs of each hospitality venue across the Domain will have the opportunity to work on a unique sustainable gala dinner, which will be evaluated by Chef Collomb along with other members of the jury.
This friendly competition will see the winner join the Chef in his restaurant in France for a week-long immersive workshop. The chefs will produce innovative new culinary creations that emphasise the wealth of locally captured, grown, and reared ingredients by using local resources gathered from the island’s farmers, fishermen, and growers. This event highlights Heritage Resorts’ commitment to sustainable practices through its sustainable program, Now for Tomorrow.
