LE PETIT JARDIN,
THE STORY

 

CLÉMENT GUEUDRÉ, PASSIONATE ABOUT THE TERROIR AND HEAD CHEF AT A MONTPELLIER HOTSPOT

“I come from a family in Pas-de-Calais. At home we were always having big meals, with lots of people around the table. I remember my grandmother’s dishes simmering for hours.”

It was only natural that he went on to train at a hotel school. Firstly in Saint-Chély-d’Apcher (48), before moving on to some of Lyon’s finest establishments. From La Villa Florentine Relais & Châteaux to Hôtel Lyon Métropole and on to Domaine le Lyon Vert, owned by the Partouche group. He joined the Petit Jardin brigade in 2020. “I came back to the south with the idea of having my own restaurant. When I arrived here, I immediately fell in love with the place. After two years as head chef, I wanted to become the owner”. Today, he asserts his taste for straightforward cooking, reflecting his love of the terroir and good produce.

I do what I call cooking from the heart, like our grandmothers did. We work with products we love and that mean something to us. That makes us happy and it shows in our dishes.
