Le Grand Repas culinary initiative
Overview
The national culinary initiative ‘Le Grand Repas’ was scheduled for October 8, 2026. The event focused on local gastronomy and short supply chains through various regional participations.
In the Vienne department of France, the initiative planned to serve 12,000 meals across 88 locations, including schools, corporate dining, and senior residences. The menu, designed by chefs Frédéric Turbeau and Chloé Frayssens, emphasized local producers such as regional goat cheeses and livestock from the Montmorillon agricultural high school.
In Guadeloupe, the municipality of Le Gosier participated via the association Agores 971. The program included special menus for school cafeterias and home-delivered meals for seniors. Designed by Lionel Navis and Rico Vaitilingon, the menu aimed to promote healthy eating, culinary expertise, and awareness regarding food waste prevention.
