fter spending 10 years as executive chef at the Hôtel

de Crillon, Christopher Hache has come to Pro-

vence, to a welcoming and refined location, where

the spotlight is on local produce.

The gastronomic restaurant and its charming guest rooms

opened in April 2019 after 4 months of renovations in this

19th century building.

Maison Hache is an authentic restaurant. It is decorated

in an unfussy style, so your attention is focused on the food

on your plate. Here’s where Christopher Hache excels, de-

livering a gastronomic meal that is stripped of pretension.

It’s easy to read.

There are 400 different wine labels in the Maison Hache

cellar: quite sufficient to satisfy those customers keen to

discover a local wine, and also those who are wanting to

try a small producer from another region.

Chef Hache’s cooking is often qualified as lisible in French,

or “easy to read”. The chef doesn’t play about or invent

things; he simply takes his food to a higher level.

You can discover this cuisine for yourself, either from an

à la carte option or two different tasting menus (Chef’s

Menu 80€ - Eygalières Tasting Menu, 135€.)

To complete the experience, you can spend the night on the

first floor of Maison Hache in a Provencal setting. There

are 2 bedrooms and two suites available. Breakfast is from

local suppliers, with pastries and bread from the village

bakery, jams from the Maison Hache pastry chef, and sea-

sonal fruit.
