Gastronomic restaurant
in Luxembourg: a couple’s dream
In 2008, while working in Polynesia, the couple’s paths met, beginning a story that has taken them on a personal and professional journey.
Based on their complementarity and expertise in the worlds of gastronomy and the art of receiving, they very naturally decided to open their restaurant in the City of Luxembourg .
La Villa de Camille et Julien is first and foremost the story of a meeting .
Julien Lucas, a Michelin-starred chef, cut his teeth working alongside big names in gastronomy (such as Joël Robuchon, Bernard Loiseau and Alain Ducasse) and is the fourth generation in a family of restaurant owners. With a background in luxury hotels, Camille Tardif learned her trade working in prestigious groups such as Four Seasons and Relais et Châteaux.
Responsible cuisine
Camille Tardif and Julien Lucas have both spent many years working overseas. Both nature lovers and concerned with the climate challenges we face, they have made a strong commitment to the environment.
Adopting a thoughtful and sustainable approach to cuisine, Julien Lucas places great importance in the choice of ingredients he uses (including seasonal produce, freshwater fish to respect fishing quotas, and the reduction of plastic use in the dining room and kitchen).
In their restaurant in the City of Luxembourg, Camille and Julien Lucas are revisiting tradition as they combine ecology with gastronomic cuisine.
La Villa, Krug Ambassador
A "Krug Embassy" reflects the spirit of the Krug Champagne House. It invites consumers to discover or rediscover Krug and to experience its champagnes with passion and enthusiasm.
What is so extraordinary about Krug champagne?
Behind every precious drop of Krug champagne lies the dream of a visionary. A man who, long before anyone else, understood that the very essence of champagne resides in pleasure. Over 170 years ago, Joseph Krug broke with convention to follow his vision: to create, every year, the most lavish champagne, regardless of the vagaries of the weather.
Joseph's bold experiment proved a triumph and he succeeded in creating a champagne like no other. Today, Krug continues to live and breathe this enduring philosophy, creating only the very finest champagnes, unrivalled since 1843.
Why did Julien choose to be a Krug ambassador?
