2023

MÉDITERRANÉE !

Like an impulse of the heart, this word radiates a solar culture, which is illustrated as much by conviviality as by the spirit of sharing. From shores to landscapes, the contours of the Big Blue reveal inspirations as rich as they are unique. This theme has always been the backdrop for Côté Sud. It will be the keynote of the 2023 edition of the show. And this, through the prism of objects from multiple horizons, through the diversity of its cuisine, its art of living, a palette stretching from sunny yellow to Cyclades blue, but also perfumes, jewellery, clothing, know-how and talents from the Mediterranean basin. The idea is to make this theme a source of inspiration, which will set the tone and spirit of this new session. Like an odyssey to be lived together, we invite you to a stopover in the colour “Mediterranean”.

AMPM’s spring-summer 2023 collection renews the art of the home, both indoors and out. If architecture and the wonder of landscapes are always sources of emotion, it’s in the heart of materials that the fundamental lines of this new collection take shape. Materials inspire the evolution of our timeless furniture as much as they stimulate the creative audacity of new, resolutely contemporary lines. Welcome to the real, sensual and physical world of summer 2023.

Culinary demonstrations

“The Mediterranean in our hearts, in our baskets, on our plates”.

The theme of this year’s event is as clear and refreshing as the azure waters of the Mediterranean. But it’s also as warm as a grocery store on Marseille’s Rue d’Aubagne, like a citrus fruit from Morocco, like pistachios from Provence.
The Mediterranean is sea and land. It’s fish and olive oil, thyme and cinnamon, honey and orange blossom. It’s this blend that makes us so rich.
Wherever you are, in this cuisine of sunshine and sharing, you’ll feel right at home.

On the program:

For this new edition of the culinary demos at the Salon Côté Sud, I’ve gone in search of those who bear witness to this strong attachment to the Mediterranean and its products, who have a strong history with their territory. And we always forge links between them.
Mathias Dandine will introduce us to the chefs behind his two Provencal institutions, Alexandre Léard at La Magdeleine (Gémenos) and Guillaume Lemelle at La Bastide Bourrelly (Cabries). Teaming up with olive grower and winemaker Jean-François Margier (Domaine de la Michelle), he’ll explain why olive oil is the key ingredient in the Provencal cuisine he champions. We’ll learn how to taste green, ripe and black fruity wines, just like at the Concours Général Agricole!
Focus on citrus fruits with chef Eric Maillet, from the Cédrat restaurant in Marseille, in dialogue with l’Agrumiste, who will introduce us to different varieties grown in his orchards in Morocco. Christopher Hache (Maison Hache), who is opening a second home in Eygalières, will bring us his Camargue shellfish fisherman.
We’ll be hosting a summit meeting between pastry chef Sylvain Depuichaffray, one of Marseille’s finest, and pistachio growers Maxence Brenguier (Les Pépinières du soleil in Venasque) and Jean-Louis Joseph (Domaine Chante Coucou in La Bastidonne), and we’ll be witnessing the marriage of Ideal products with the spontaneous, natural cuisine of Julia Sammut, who pays tribute to all the colors and flavors of Mediterranean countries.
Nicolas Hensinger (Le Petit Nice chez Gérald Passédat) will tell us how the fish go through the window to land on his pass, and introduce us to Julie André, market gardener at the “Faiseuse de racines” farm in Gignac-la-Nerthe.
Camille Gandolfo (Les Bords de Mer) will tell us what goes through her mind when boats return to port, and Ludovic Turac will recount his travel memories in his menu Passeport à Une Table au Sud.
Finally, on Sunday evening, we’ll be putting together a merry Marseillaise brigade with Lionel Lévy and Carla Wiza, Intercontinental Hôtel Dieu, Coline Faulquier, Restaurant Signature, Matthieu Roche, Ouréa, Laetitia Visse, La Femme du Boucher, and Edgar Bosquez, Ekume.
Shall we take you away?
Anne Garabedian, editor-in-chief of the gastronomic magazine “Le Cœur des Chefs”.

Each day, the chefs will cook on the stand equipped by Morcrette with Lacanche and Open’Cook equipment.
