La Palme d'Or

La Palme d'Or is a gastronomic restaurant that holds one Michelin star and occupies a symbolic, film‑linked place in Cannes. The dining room sits in the historic Palme d'Or space of the emblematic Hôtel Martinez and cultivates a relaxed, sunlit "Riviera" ambiance that favours a laid‑back, solar dining experience. The kitchen practises sun‑kissed, seafood‑focused Mediterranean gastronomy that is gastronomic yet unpretentious and instinctive, highlighting regional products and the know‑how of local fishermen and featuring ingredients seldom found in Paris. Jean Imbert is the chef; he began working in Cannes at 16 and later took over the stoves of La Plage du Martinez and the hotel’s kitchens before opening this dining room. Specialties comprise raw fish preparations, wood‑grilled fish and Mediterranean seafood dishes, with guests able to choose à la carte dishes or a tasting menu.
