A gastronomic jaunt
in the heart of Provence.

Nicolas Jay and his wife welcome you to the city of the Princes to taste simple yet elegant cooking with instinct and emotion, a reference for all epicureans.

Cooking, it was always my vocation.

Native of Orange, from a very young age, Nicolas Jay developed a passion for cooking during family dinners that were synonyms of sharing and friendliness.

Graduate from the high school of « Sacré-Cœur » de Saint Chély d’Apcher followed by higher education at the « Grégoire Ferrandi » french cooking school in Paris, Nicolas cut his teeth in well reputed establishments such as « Hielly Luculus » in Avignon, « Taillevant » and « Henri Faugeron » in Paris, « Le Fer Rouge » in Colmar….

After this career path full of numerous encounters, Nicolas decided to create his own premium events catering business in the Paris area that he ran for 17 years. During this time, he met Delphine who would become his wife with who he has 3 children ; When Delphine discovered Nicolas’ Provence, she fell in love again.

In 2012, caught up by his boyhood dream to have his own kitchen on the couple’s cherished homeland, the native son joined the team of « Château des Fines Roches » in Châteauneuf-du-Pape as head chef

Delphine and Nicolas fell in love with « Le Parvis » and duly acquired the restaurant in march 2018, situated in the chef’s birth town in order to fulfill their motto :

« As the farmer takes the time to cultivate or breed the chef must improve the product without denaruting it  »
