Au Moulin Gourmand - Maître Restaurateur sur Cadenet

16/09/2024: Having stayed and eaten at The Feniere for 6 times in previous years when Reine Samuut was the proprietor, we always used this hotel to stay at when we were travelling through the South it was our banker knowing we would be happy there and get good Service. We hadn’t booked as we found ourselves in the area we were lucky (so we thought )there was a room available for 2 nights. The room was very sparsely furnished no headboard, Tv , no Fridge paintwork marked, bathroom curtain over the bath for the shower, paint coming off the tiles on the vanity unit. We ate in the Restaurant completely dissatisfied a choice of 2 starter, 2 mains which one was fish, 2 desserts. All courses were tasteless. We are not Vegetarian or vegan we are happy to eat vegetarian if there is taste we like good food but felt that the plot has been lost here. In all style over substance The Sommelier was dressed in what I would garden in ! a sloppy jumper! The music in the background was very dreary it was very badly lit no lights to show off the lovely grounds with the olive trees, as they always used to be. The reception staff were very accommodating , So no we will not return to our once favourite hotel restaurant .

13/08/2024: We stayed 3 nights to extend our vacation in Provence, guided by the reputation of the restaurant and the place We took advantage of… everything. Gourmet restaurant, country table and Sunday brunch, visit to the vegetable garden, garden…. Biscuits from the store…… Beyond the place, the well-being felt, we discovered above all the passion carried by a very young team, to whom Nadia Sammut visibly gives everyone the opportunity to find their way. It is a pleasure to interact with these very motivated young people. Bravo to Gilles Bourgeois (and thanks again for the natural sourdough), bravo to our favorite young pastry chef whose first name escapes us at the moment, sorry The cuisine is certainly gluten and lactose free but it is well beyond: creation, the astonishing, the different, the cuisine that makes you smile and gives meaning.
