Megeve, France

Celebrating Women's Rights Day with a high-flying culinary composition is an ambition these Michelin starred chefs share. They will be combining their talent and skills for an exceptional evening on March 8, 2020. "I am very honoured to be able to cook alongside Christian Le Squer, and delighted to welcome him and his teams to our snowy mountains," says Julien Gatillon.

Christian Le Squer comments: "I can't wait to share my world of excellence with Julien Gatillon and introduce guests in Le 1920 at Four Seasons Hotel Megève to some of the signature dishes that have earned our restaurant Le Cinq its international reputation.”

A three Michelin-starred icon of French haute gastronomy, Christian Le Squer has always seen his cuisine as being in motion, a bridge between his Breton roots and his thoroughly Parisian heart. In the majestic setting of the three Michelin star restaurant Le Cinq, Christian Le Squer conjures up a modern, elegant and flavourful cuisine - a true sensory journey to the heart of French excellence.

As for Julien Gatillon, at the age of 26, he joined Le 1920 as chef, initially in the Chalets du Mont d'Arbois, a historic de Rothschild family property. A few years later, he was awarded two stars in the Michelin Guide. Ever since, he has been immortalising the excellence of authentic French cuisine by subtly blending the finest seasonal produce.

For this four-hands dinner, the chefs have devised a seven sequence menu, where each will propose a starter and a main course, true reflections of their respective culinary worlds.

Christian le Squer serves perfectly cooked Breton langoustines, warm mayonnaise and crispy buckwheat pancakes; a starter that is now iconic and will plunge guests into the marine atmosphere of his native Brittany. For the main course, the mozzarella and truffle draped wagyu beef piccata, one of the chef's signature dishes served à la carte at Le Cinq restaurant, offers an explosion of flavours.

For Julien Gatillon, whose honest and sincere cuisine elevates the noblest produce, the terroir meets the iconic symbols of refinement: as subtle as they are audacious, the combinations of Jerusalem artichokes and caviar, or celery and black truffle, will delight the most discerning palates.
