Chef Jerome Blanchet is a fervent supporter of local producers in his gastronomic kitchens at the 5 star hotel Crillon Le Brave. Originally from the region of Poitou Charente, Jerome came to Crillon after working for years as assistant chef at the Negresko hotel in Nice. At the hotel's spring cocktail today, I got to try his truffle spelt risotto which was what I call culinary perfection.
