"Laurent Halasz grew up in Mougins, in the south of France. Mougins is also known for the annual event called “Les Étoiles de Mougins”, an international gastronomic meeting of the world’s leading chefs. Together with his mother, Francine, the "Cuisine of the Sun" she inspired to create the basis of figure OLIVE. Chef Pascal Lorange continues the philosophy of creating inspiring dishes that combine the freshest seasonal dishes and the cuisine of the Riviera and coastal regions of Southern France, Italy and Spain. Olive oil is an integral part of the OLIVE dishes, instead of butter. The kitchen also inspired the elegant coast decoration of limestone stone wall, terracotta ceiling, green rosemary, olive trees and a wall of illuminated bottles of olive oil next to the open kitchen."
