  1. Assa

    Creative Japanese

    The name means "morning" in Japanese, which is when the couple behind this Michelin-starred restaurant in central Blois sits down to write the day's menu from scratch. She trained as a nutritionist and pastry chef, he spent years with Arnaud Donckele at La Vague d'Or, and together they fold Japanese seasonings into locally sourced Loire Valley produce with a lightness that feels like a philosophy, not just a technique.
