In Montauroux, near Lac de Saint-Cassien, Auberge La Bécassière occupies an old stone Provençal farmhouse surrounded by oak trees. The establishment has been associated with the Ricco family for many years: Anne-Laure Ricco has taken over the kitchen, continuing the work of her father Joël.
Home-made traditions
The cuisine follows the seasons and preserves the foundations of Provençal family cooking. Fridays are particularly associated with aïoli, prepared with fish, seafood and vegetables depending on supplies. The menu changes regularly, with fresh produce remaining central to the chef's cooking.
From old stone walls to a shaded terrace
Inside, a rustic dining room with a fireplace reflects the character of the old building. In warmer weather, dining moves to the terrace and garden. This stop can be combined with an outing to Lac de Saint-Cassien or a visit to Montauroux village.
