At Maison de Bacon, bouillabaisse is more than an iconic dish of Provençal cuisine: it is a tribute to the Mediterranean and its fish. On the Cap d’Antibes, facing the sea, chef Nicolas Davouze, Bocuse d’Or France, prepares it with fresh fish chosen from the daily catch.
Bouillabaisse was born in the ports of Provence. Fishermen cooked their unsold rockfish in a saffron broth, flavoured with fennel, garlic, tomato and herbs. The dish remains one of the finest expressions of Mediterranean cuisine.
At Maison de Bacon, we respect this heritage and add the precision of fine dining.
Our bouillabaisse follows the daily catch: each fish is chosen for its freshness and quality. The broth simmers slowly and concentrates the flavours of the fish and spices. It is served with golden croutons, homemade rouille and a spicy sauce.
Few restaurants offer such a setting for a bouillabaisse. From the dining room, the view opens onto the Mediterranean, the Baie des Anges and Old Antibes. At lunch or dinner, the meal becomes a pause facing one of the finest views on the Côte d’Azur.
Our tasting bouillabaisse is €78 per person, with a spiny lobster supplement of €20 per person. Find it with the other dishes on the Tradition Bacon menu.
