In Nîmes, in the heart of the Margaret - Hôtel Chouleur, ROUGE invites you on a gastronomic journey that gives pride of place to products from the Gard and Languedoc regions, punctuated by a hint of flavours from elsewhere, orchestrated by the chef. Luka-Tao DEBENATH. On the plate, the tastes are straightforward and the creativity is unbridled, with vegetable and seafood as the flagship flavours, and the highlight is the remarkable work on sauces, the signature of each of his recipes, the common thread running through every gourmet interlude at one of ROUGE's tables.

In the kitchen, the head chef is supported by a dedicated team, including the pastry chef Auriane FOUGERAYwho brings her generosity and sensitivity to this collective adventure. On the stage, the team, supported by Julian REBOLLAR performs a subtle and graceful ballet, with elegance and particular attention to the small details that make all the difference. ROUGE is also a memorable oenological experience centred on perfect pairings inspired by the chef’s creations, featuring wines from here and further afield.

A unique experience, revealed in a warm setting where marble and brass mingle with the warmth of wood and velvet, in a cameo of carmine and terracotta, or in fine weather by candlelight under the stars.
