Circle of Trust: Christopher Coutanceau

April 7, 2013
True to Baudelaire's call, Christopher Coutanceau, as a free man, has always cherished the sea.
A gastronomic reference, with two Michelin stars for 27 years and recognized as one of the world's top tables since 2013, the chef from La Rochelle has drawn a continuous line throughout the various stages of his ascent.
This guiding thread is the promotion of the exceptional work of local producers, foremost among them the fishermen who surround him every day.
For Christopher Coutanceau’s signature is first and foremost the evident and contagious pleasure he takes in elevating fish, shellfish, and seafood, varying cooking methods and compositions endlessly.
It is also the tribute he pays to the bonds of trust he has forged with those he works with.
The Alexis Muñoz brand is proud to join this circle, in service of the virtuosity of Chef Coutanceau.
