This summer, Mikael Einarsson — the chef and restaurateur behind Chez Jolie in Stockholm — will bring his culinary philosophy to the French Riviera for an exclusive guest appearance at the historic Château Le Cagnard in Cagnes-sur-Mer. On July 19, he will present a one-night-only menu created specifically for the occasion, inspired by craftsmanship, French techniques, and seasonal ingredients.
Known for his unwavering dedication to quality and his deep respect for classical cooking, Einarsson has established Chez Jolie as a destination where timeless gastronomy meets modern elegance. His appearance at Château Le Cagnard represents a meeting of Nordic precision and French culinary tradition, all set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Mediterranean.
Perched on the hillside with panoramic sea views, Château Le Cagnard is a boutique hotel steeped in history. Its terrace restaurant — famous for its retractable ceiling — will serve as the stage for this intimate dining experience. Each summer, the château invites a select group of celebrated chefs to host special evenings, and Mikael Einarsson is the first to take the reins this season.
July 19 promises to be a rare opportunity to experience Einarsson’s cuisine in a new setting — where local ingredients from the South of France meet the refined sensibilities of Chez Jolie.
Later this summer, the château will also host guest appearances by acclaimed Swedish chefs Tommy Myllymäki and Niklas Ekstedt. But the season begins with Einarsson’s signature evening.
Seats for these guest dinners are limited, and reservations can be made through Château Le Cagnard. Menu details and pricing are provided at the time of booking.
