The QUATRO kamado barbecue has found its place in Hélène Darroze’s kitchen, halfway between the historic city of Aix-en-Provence and the famous Luberon Natural Park : in the heart of the Domaine de Château La Coste. Nestled in the heart of a 200-hectare vineyard cultivated entirely in organic farming, the site offers a destination dedicated to gastronomy, wine, art, as well as architecture and well-being, in a preserved natural setting.
Between Aix-en-Provence and the Luberon, the kamado barbecue at the centre of the cuisine of the Michelin-starred restaurant of the Villa La Coste.
The kamado brings several advantages to a starred restaurant. Here are some advantages:
– Cooking versatility : The kamado allows you to grill, roast, smoke, and cook at low temperatures. This versatility is valuable in a Michelin-starred restaurant, as it allows you to offer a wide variety of dishes, from grilled meats to smoked fish, roasted vegetables or artisan breads.
– Precision and Temperature Control : The ceramic design of the kamado allows it to maintain a stable temperature for several hours. This ensures even and precise cooking, which is essential for achieving high-quality results in a gourmet kitchen.
– High-temperature cooking : The kamado can reach very high temperatures, up to 400-500°C, perfect for searing meats or making quick cooking while keeping the juices inside. This helps to maximize the flavors and texture of the food.

Find below the interview with executive chef Thomas Pézéril, executive chef at Villa La Coste :
One of the main advantages of cooking at kamado in a Michelin-starred restaurant is the contribution of unique smoky flavors. Cooking in kamado, with the possibility of using natural charcoal and wood chips, or even hay, brings a subtle smoky flavor to the food. In a Michelin-starred restaurant, this authentic and natural touch can enrich the gastronomic experience.
