Raphaël raises and cooks no less than 200,000 snails each year (from the egg to the plate, he says), prepared with fresh products and amazing recipes.
The snails are raised in the open air in outdoor parks rich in vegetation cover and fitted out with sticky surfaces where the gastropods can grow in peace and shelter from the sun.
They are collected each year to be cooked on the spot with different recipes all as greedy: recipe aperitif to be piched or to be spread, with the Provençal, short-boiled, candied, buttered snails in the shell or in a cookie.

Something to delight all snail lovers.
