Celestial Gastronomy: Lunar-Cycle Dining at Three-Star Mirazur

Perched on the steep cliffs of Menton, France, overlooking the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, Mirazur is not simply a restaurant—it is a cosmic sensory journey. Chef Mauro Colagreco has reimagined fine dining by aligning his entire culinary calendar with the lunar cycle. ### The Four Lunar Menus Mirazur's culinary creations are split into four distinct menus: Root, Leaf, Flower, and Fruit. Depending on the moon's position and its influence on biodynamic crops in the restaurant's private gardens, the tasting journey changes. On a 'Flower Day,' the dishes are delicate, featuring local orange blossoms and edible micro-herbs. On a 'Fruit Day,' the kitchen focuses on robust, sun-drenched coastal tomatoes and citrus. ### The French Riviera Setting The dining room features floor-to-ceiling glass windows that frame the historic port of Menton. Before sitting down, guests are guided through the multi-tiered biodynamic gardens, tasting fresh herbs straight from the soil. ### Signature Creation A standout dish is the local Riviera Gamberoni (scarlet prawns) served with a citrus reduction and wild sea herbs. Combined with an extensive selection of natural and biodynamic wines, Mirazur offers a dining experience that connects the soil, the sea, and the sky in perfect harmony.
