Every season, the auberge serves large numbers: during the Nice Carnival in February, more than 2,500 group covers are booked over a dozen or so days.
Homemade group menus
Group menus are prepared by the auberge kitchen, using the same produce as the à la carte menu: regional meat, signature dishes, homemade desserts. Choose a single set menu or a menu with options, depending on the size of the group and the time available.
Spit roasts, such as suckling pig, can be ordered in advance for a festive table. Special diets (vegetarian, vegan) are catered for on request; please mention them when booking.
