"Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons is one of the UK's best-loved and most-recognisable restaurants - the lavender-fringed path leading to the buttery stone manor house, the sprawling kitchen gardens, the specially commissioned sculptures dotted about the grounds. Until recently, guests at the restaurant were as likely to spot Raymond Blanc OBE, the iconic French chef who founded this two- Michelin-starred pioneering restaurant in 1982, pottering about the lawns."
"To bring my cuisine to the UK for the first time, at a place as magical and meaningful as Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons, is a profound honour. I have long admired Raymond Blanc's ethos of respect for nature and commitment to sustainability. Entrusted by Belmond, I am thrilled to craft the next chapter of Le Manoir's illustrious story, all while meticulously preserving its cherished spirit."
Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons is a renowned two-Michelin-star restaurant and manor house known for lavender-fringed paths, expansive kitchen gardens, and commissioned sculptures. Raymond Blanc founded the restaurant in 1982 and has been a visible presence there. The hotel and restaurant will close in 2025 for more than a year for renovations, and Blanc will step back from his role during that period. In 2027 Arnaud Donckele will assume the role of culinary director. Donckele previously led three-Michelin-star La Vague d'Or at Cheval Blanc St-Tropez and Plénitude in Paris. His cuisine applies refined, modern interpretations of classical French technique with storytelling through food.
