A Taste of the French Riviera at Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay by Guest Pastry Chef Florent Margaillan

Tuesday, November 9, 2021

Bringing the decadent taste of the French Riviera to Four Seasons Hotel Bahrain Bay, guest Pastry Chef Florent Margaillan will be flying in to offer a menu inspired by his coastal home on the Côte d’Azur for a limited time only. From Tuesday, November 23 to Monday, December 6, 2021, Chef Florent from Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel, will take over the sweet offerings at Bay View and introduce a special dining experience.

Overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat serves as his ultimate source of inspiration: “The views and the gardens there are so beautiful, and the Hotel has real elegance and charm. I try to relate all of those things through my creations,” comments Chef Florent. Using the beautiful ingredients of the region, he is particularly fond of seasonal fresh fruits and citrus. Guests can expect to find new wonderful creations on the dessert trolley ranging from lemon and mint tartlets to raspberry and verbena cake, and caramelised Tropézienne tarts. For afternoon tea, strawberry and basil shortbread, mint and lime baba, chocolate shortbread, and Tropézienne tarts adorned with pistachios and orange blossoms will be offered.

For the passionate and aspiring pastry chefs out there, Chef Florent will be hosting a one-time masterclass on Thursday, November 25, 2021 at 5:00 pm in the Royal Majlis to teach guests his secret recipe for his beloved frozen lemon mint dessert. To conclude the masterclass, participants will be able to enjoy desserts and scones crafted by Chef Florent and take home with them a Four Seasons apron as well as a certificate signed by the chef himself.
