Patrick Berton was appointed Executive Chef of the Relais Bernard Loiseau in 2003. Since taking the helm of the Relais’s kitchens (2 in Burgundy and 2 in Paris) Patrick has ensured that the menu has continued to evolve by developing new recipes in the spirit of Bernard Loiseau’s culinary values. Patrick’s menu is all about perfection, demand, authenticity and imagination- qualities he developed during the 20 years he spent working as Bernard Loisea’s protege.

Patrick’s menu focuses on respect for the integrity of the ingredients (heavy on seafood) used and the desire to make them truly exceptional. In order to create pure and powerful flavor, the use of added fat and sugar is limited. Patrick’s recipes display local and seasonal ingredients and he works closely with French producers in order to ensure that they continue to offer the finest ingredients.

The restaurant’s dining rooms have recently been redecorated to create a contemporary yet intimate environment, offering panoramic views of the beautifully landscaped grounds and gardens. Guests begin their dining experience by perusing the menu over drinks in one of the property’s charming fireside seating areas or outside on the garden terrace.

The wine cellars at the Relais Bernard Loiseauboast about having one of Burgundy’s most extensive wine cellars, with 20,000 vineyard bottled wines and 1,000 different varieties. Cellarmaster Eric Goettelmann has been with the Relais for 7 years. He was elected Meilleur sommelier de Bourgogne (Burgundy’s Best Cellarmaster) in 2004 and 2006.

The hotel Relais Bernard Loiseau style is renowned for its authenticity, excellence and hospitality. Loiseau des Vignes in Beaune, a magnificent restaurant combining fine food and fine wines, brings the Bernard Loiseau tradition to the wine capital of Burgundy.

The philosophy of Bernard Loiseau and the way it is maintained and carefully developed by Patrick Bertron and his staff of 20 seem to work, partly because the three starsare still in place, partly because the Relais Bernard Loiseau continues to receive growing number of guests from all corners of the world.
