Fun and new discoveries were certainly on the agenda on Friday, May 23, at the Domaine de Ch\u00e2teauvieux, during the luncheon organized by Asage.<\/p>\n

The themed event lived up to expectations, filling the Michelin-starred restaurant, which had been reserved exclusively for the occasion: 60 guests\u2014mostly alumni of prestigious universities now working in Switzerland\u2014had the privilege of attending this sophisticated and convivial gathering.<\/p>\n

During the cocktail reception, held on the porch of the Maison de Satigny, Philippe Chevrier spoke candidly. He spoke about his journey as an entrepreneur, his early days in the industry, the trust placed in him by his banker, his successive restaurant openings\u2014up to 19 at one point, compared to 9 today\u2014 staff management, the importance of service, interpersonal relationships in the industry, and, of course, his cuisine, which follows the rhythm of the seasons. Sensitive topics, such as the recent loss of his Michelin star, were addressed head-on. <\/p>\n

Next up is lunch, featuring an exceptional food-and-wine pairing. A divine sensory experience showcasing local, seasonal ingredients, such as Bresse chicken with morel mushrooms served with a vin jaune sauce. <\/p>\n

Without a doubt, the guests enjoyed meeting each other for the first time or reconnecting in this idyllic setting.<\/p>\n

First and foremost, we would like to thank Mr. Philippe Chevrier for his warm welcome, as well as the volunteer organizing team at Asage: @Nicolas Boucault, @Christine Royer, and @Lionel Parthiot.<\/p>\n
