Come and discover modern cuisine with a strong local flavour at our restaurant La Table de l'Olivier in Carcassonne. The creativity of Chef Cédric Laveau is enhanced by the use of fresh seasonal produce. The restaurant's setting reflects the elegant, refined dishes that emerge from the kitchen.
Curious and generous, our Chef and his team offer you a resolutely local menu combining Mediterranean culinary tradition with his own brand of innovation.
Chef Cédric Laveau was born in Auxerre in the Yonne region. He decided to move to Carcassonne after starting out in Pierre Liperi's kitchens, where he completed his apprenticeship working with oeufs cocottes, Burgundy snails and Chablis, all of which hold no secrets for him. It was in the heart of the Cité that he became second in command at the Ecu d'Or restaurant. In 2005, he joined Jean-Pierre Lombard at the Mercure hotel, eventually succeeding him as Chef in June 2008.
Our restaurant is passionate about delighting its customers. Enjoy Mediterranean specialities for lunch and dinner, accompanied by a selection of fine nectars. A taste for good things, beautiful things and the choice of products are the driving forces behind our expertise. Our aim is to bring out the best in products that are already of the highest quality, and to stage them elegantly at the heart of our dishes.
The Chef plays from the heart with his creations. A menu that reflects him, inventive and passionate, made with fresh produce.
The unique menu is a choice of products featuring the best that the 4 seasons have to offer and to introduce to our guests, all enhanced by the Chef's secret twist. The menu is a mix of surprises and gourmet dishes, using produce from short distribution channels, because the Chef is determined not to tamper with our local nuggets.
And for those with a taste for freshness, the Chef suggests you compose your own generous and tasty salad. Here again, another way to celebrate nature on your plate.
