Episode 14, Mauro Colagreco : earth, wind and fire. (english version)

With the Mirazur, the restaurant he opened in 2006, and which was recently awarded the prestigious title of “best restaurant in the world”, the Argentinian chef hopes to revolutionize our relationship towards both food and nature.

Around 150 species of plants (among which more than three dozen different varieties of tomatoes), biodynamically grown over five hectares of land irrigated with mountain spring water, and cared for according to the cycles of the Moon… In Menton, a stone’s throw from the Italian border, Mauro Colagreco oversees a gigantic garden that directly provides the kitchens of his three-Michelin-starred restaurant with fresh fruit, vegetables, herbs and edible flowers. The goal: to celebrate the beauty of the French region he has chosen to settle in, but also to encourage the consumption of local products, at a time when a majority of people living in cities mostly eat over-processed food, often imported from across the globe.
