Chef Stéphane Cadillon and the Maître Restaurateur designation

Stéphane Cadillon embodies a modern take on Savoyard cuisine, blending tradition with modernity. His unique career path is rooted in an authentic approach, recognized by the Maître Restaurateur designation he earned in 2019. This title, awarded following a rigorous audit, guarantees cuisine prepared entirely in-house using raw, fresh, and local ingredients, with no industrial preparations. It attests to a high standard of expertise in terms of product quality and service.

The label symbolizes a commitment to transparency: each dish celebrates the producers of the Chablais, Aravis, and Bauges regions. Mountain meats, vegetables, and cheeses reflect the local terroir through a local and eco-friendly approach, in line with the commitments of the Hôtel Beauregard (currently pursuing the European Ecolabel). Guests can enjoy, for example, perch fillet from Lake Annecy in a crust of alpine herbs or a sauté of Bauges mushrooms, highlighting the benefits of short supply chains.

The philosophy: "Simple, healthy, and delicious"

La Boussole philosophy La Boussole rooted in a deep respect for ingredients, balanced recipes, and rich flavors.

On the plate: a culinary journey from lake to mountain

When the lake comes to your table

Lake Annecy inspires the dishes at Restaurant La Boussole its freshness and local ingredients. The roasted sea bass, served with caramelized fennel, hazelnut-infused parsnip purée, and a Pastis des Alpes sauce, embodies this harmony. Every bite evokes the lightness of water, with precise cooking techniques that preserve the delicate flavors of the locally caught fish.

The Market Menu changes depending on daily arrivals, ensuring a seasonal dining experience. A seafood tapas appetizer (mussels, shrimp, smoked salmon) or seafood linguine reveal the textures and aromas of the sea, enhanced by local herbs or wines from the Alpine valleys. In winter, spicier flavors, such as sage or mountain thyme sauce, take center stage.

The Allure of Mountain Flavors

Each dish is a destination in itself, a spot on the map of local flavors where the lake meets the mountains, guided by the chef’s passion.

Mountain produce takes center stage in comforting dishes, such as the crispy beef braised for 5 hours, served with mashed potatoes and a Trousseau sauce. The meats come from local farms in the Bauges or Aravis regions, prepared as stews or grilled dishes that celebrate the robust character of the Alpine terroirs. The tender guinea fowl, crusted with pistachios and served with mushroom polenta, blends Savoyard tradition with modern finesse.

The Boussole Menu exemplifies this balance. A starter of semi-cured foie gras, enhanced with a golden grape chutney, precedes a main course of veal with mushrooms, a creamy sauce, and roasted potatoes. For cheese lovers, alpine cheeses from Les Bauges round out the meal, paired with homemade jams. A glass of Chignin-Bergeron, a local grape variety, harmoniously blends the minerality of the lake with the richness of the cheeses.

Straddling two worlds, the restaurant invites you to savor the harmony of opposites. To make the getaway last even longer, imagine a dinner as part of a romantic weekend in Annecy, where each plate becomes a postcard of the Alps.
