Creating an authentic, richly-flavored spread without palm oil or artificial flavors? That's the bold challenge set by Catherine Brothier and her brother Yves Zuconi.

Many top hotels offer this wonderful spread in their establishments. You can find it in Biot at Catherine's partners, the Bee Riviera boutique.
