Chef Vincenzo Regine, a true artist of Mediterranean flavors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Chef Vincenzo Regine<\/strong> embodies the new gastronomic dynamism of Domaine des And\u00e9ols. A native of the island of Ischia, lulled from childhood by the scents of the sea and the aromas of Mediterranean lands, he soon developed a passion for authentic, generous cuisine<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At just 22, he left his native island to explore Europe’s culinary diversity, stopping off in Belgium and France, where he perfected his art in prestigious Michelin-starred establishments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Curious and creative, he forges a culinary signature<\/strong> in which each dish becomes a veritable work of art, full of color, texture and flavor<\/strong>. Now Executive Chef at Domaine des And\u00e9ols, Vincenzo draws his inspiration from the surrounding countryside: olives, citrus fruits, figs, lavender, thyme and rosemary nourish his creations. Like an artist in front of his canvas, he composes his dishes like luminous, harmonious paintings, blending Mediterranean instinct and French refinement. His cuisine is described as \u201ca gift to share, a love story, an art of living\u201d. His menu, entitled \u201cAt the Crossroads\u201d, celebrates the produce of the Domaine’s kitchen garden, sublimated by Italian influences. Each plate becomes a sensory experience, a tribute to the terroir of Provence as much as to its Mediterranean roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A signature dish inspired by Olivier Massart\u2019s travels<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Executive Chef of Les Andeols gave us the privilege of recounting the process of creating one of his signature dishes. A true ode to Olivier Massart, creator of Les And\u00e9ols and directly inspired by one of his travel stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Hello Vincenzo R\u00e9gine, would you be so kind as to reveal to us today one of your signature dishes, the one you’re particularly proud of, and share with us the story and thinking that inspired it ?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u2026Yes, of course. I’m thinking of one of my creations in particular, which is very close to my heart: \u201cSouvenir du Volcan\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This dish was born of a double inspiration: that of the journey of Monsieur Massart, creator of Les Andeols, and his trip to Sicily, accompanied by a great name in photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1966, together, they climbed the slopes of Mount Etna, capturing through their lenses all the raw power of this mythical volcano: the coal, the lava, the living, moving earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After reading his story and discovering his fascinating photos, the idea came to me: I wanted to translate this volcanic universe into a culinary creation drawing on my Mediterranean roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea: to create a dish that was both a tribute to Etna, as photographed by Monsieur Massart, and to my own Mediterranean origins.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
