The partner's word

Racines is a bistronomic restaurant in the centre of Annecy that champions a family-rooted, terroir-driven approach to modern French cooking. It is founded and run by John and Eva Guillot, who share an upbringing in culinary and food trades and professional training in Thonon‑les‑Bains and Bonneville. Their experience includes work in starred kitchens in London and Barcelona. The couple prioritises an eco-responsible philosophy: they source exclusively French, often local suppliers, favour seasonal produce and agriculture raisonnée, and avoid single-use plastic by serving micro-filtered tap water in carafes. Eva curates a wine cellar focused on Savoie wines and notable French regions with an emphasis on organic and sustainably produced bottles, a practice that contributed to a BIB Gourmand distinction from the Michelin Guide. The dining room features warm, sober wooden decor that evokes natural simplicity and serenity. A planted, relaxed terrace on a quiet pedestrian square by the Thiou river offers informal, convivial outdoor seating. The cuisine is bistronomic and modern, rooted in Haute‑Savoie terroir while open to world influences. The Chef renews a monthly menu built on fresh French and regional produce at the peak of season, revisiting classic French dishes with creative techniques, careful cookings and original flavour pairings. John Guillot (Chef). Œuf parfait (perfect egg) served year-round; monthly bistronomic set menu; chocolate dessert; seasonal fruit dessert; regional cheeses and Savoie wine pairings.
