Categories : Restaurant, published on : 8/5/25
What if your stay at La Bastide became a true culinary experience? Originally from Lake Como, Luca Binaschi now sets the tone in the kitchen with a Mediterranean vision that’s contemporary, refined, and full of character.
A career built on precision and creativity
Trained alongside renowned chefs such as Arnaud Faye and Pierre Gagnaire, Luca honed both discipline and creativity in Michelin-starred kitchens. His journey reflects his high standards: exceptional ingredients, technical mastery, and a personal touch.
At La Bastide’s restaurant, he expresses a cuisine that is precise, minimalist, terroir-driven, and deeply seasonal. Garden vegetables, local catch, and fresh produce sourced around Saint-Tropez—flavour always begins with origin.
A reinvented Mediterranean: from lunch to dinner
At midday, Luca offers a relaxed poolside lunch: delicate raw fish, vibrant salads, fresh pasta… the essence of the South.
In the evening, boldness takes the stage with “L’Héritage des Rivages”, a five-course tasting menu that’s sensory, light, and refined. Prefer à la carte? The evening menu features a selection of his signature dishes.
To extend the experience, La Bastide offers live barbecue cooking every Sunday and Monday evening until the end of September. Facing the pool, Luca brings his talent to life—flavourful grilling and warm hospitality guaranteed.
A true thread running through the season, Luca Binaschi’s cuisine is a sensory journey, guided by bold flavours and simple pleasures.
Each dish tells a story—of the Mediterranean, and the joy of sharing.
