Chef Clément Debilly: cuisine inspired by the local region
Hailing from Drôme Provençale, Chef Clément Debilly creates refined, indulgent and accessible cuisine that showcases local gastronomy. His approach is based on a balance between precision, generosity and respect for the ingredients.
At Villa Augusta, every dish is prepared in-house using fresh, seasonal produce. The menu changes in line with market availability, local producers and the chef’s current inspirations, offering a culinary experience true to the spirit of the place: elegant, authentic and deeply rooted in the region.
The truffle, an iconic local produce, naturally plays a prominent role in the restaurant’s culinary vision. It enhances certain dishes with subtlety, without excess, in a style of cooking where flavour always takes centre stage.
Market menu, evening set menus and à la carte suggestions
The Villa Augusta restaurant welcomes you all year round with a menu designed to suit different times of the day and the week.
At lunchtime, from Tuesday to Friday, the ‘Menu du Marché’ offers fresh, seasonal and approachable cuisine, ideal for a Provençal lunch in a peaceful and elegant setting.
In the evenings and at weekends, two more refined set menus allow you to discover a fuller expression of Chef Clément Debilly’s cuisine. These menus are complemented by à la carte suggestions, depending on the produce available, seasonal inspirations and the chef’s current inspiration.
This approach enables us to offer a vibrant, evolving dining experience that remains true to the rhythm of the local area.
Seasonal produce, truffles and local cuisine
The restaurant’s cuisine is based on a selection of fresh produce, chosen for its quality and seasonal relevance. Vegetables, herbs, meat, fish, cheese and iconic local specialities are prepared with precision to bring out their natural flavours.
Villa Augusta prides itself on its regional cuisine, inspired by the Drôme, Provence and the Rhône Valley. Truffles, market produce, Mediterranean flavours and seasonal recipes combine to create a gastronomic experience that is both local and contemporary.
The aim is not to overcomplicate the dish, but to offer cuisine that is authentic, elegant and accessible, appealing to both travellers and local diners alike.
A selection of wines from Provence and the region
To complement the chef’s cuisine, the restaurant offers a selection of wines centred on Provence, the Rhône Valley and local estates. This wine list allows guests to discover wines chosen for their balance, character and ability to complement the dishes.
From crisp whites and full-bodied reds to Provençal rosés and lesser-known wines: each selection contributes to the dining experience. The pairing of food and wine is conceived as a natural extension of the cuisine, with a selection that is accessible, carefully curated and consistent with the identity of Villa Augusta.
