Meeting with Anthony Bonnet

We went to meetAnthony Bonnet. He created a signature dish for Lafont. We took the opportunity to ask him some questions!

Lafont: what is the correspondence between your recipe and the brand?

Whatever passions I want to express on the plate, I need to rely on a solid foundation of knowledge and history. Lafont also has one, I find the same vision of things. We start from that to build something else that will open other horizons, while respecting the work that was done beforehand.

The parallel between the beehive, the kitchen and the industry is obvious to me: like the bees, all those little hands that are important, will embellish the product at every step. Whether it’s the person growing the cotton, harvesting it, processing it, weaving it, assembling it and even thinking about it, it all works like a kitchen or a beehive. Thanks to this group of people, we arrive at a final product that is totally accomplished, in other words that we could not create alone, we are obliged to go through all these stages. We need to go through all this to have a product of excellence.

How did you live this experience?

I have been working with Lafont for a long time because it is an inspiring brand that works hand in hand with professionals. As a native of Lyon, I am proud to participate in an original work such as the realization of a recipe that reflects my deep personality.
