Restaurant with one Michelin star and a green star in an 18th-century Alain Ducasse bastide on the edge of Moustiers: garden cooking, menu from €95.

Ducasse's house in the Verdon
In 1994 Alain Ducasse bought this 18th-century bastide from a Moustiers faïence master, on the outskirts of the village, on the Quinson road, and turned it into a four-star hotel with a restaurant. Today the restaurant has one Michelin star and the green star, which the guide gives to kitchens committed to produce and environment. The cooking is led by chef Valentin Fuchs.
The house is surrounded by a four-hectare park with olive trees and an organic vegetable garden of about 2,000 m². It is the heart of the cooking: tomatoes, courgettes, pumpkins, aubergines, peas, peppers and herbs come from it, and neighbouring farms supply what is missing.
What you eat
Seasonal Mediterranean cooking, centred on vegetables, which the restaurant describes as simple and generous. The menu changes every week according to what the garden gives, so there is no fixed menu to copy. The website publishes a seasonal menu from €95. You eat on a terrace in the shade of plane trees, among olive trees and with a view of the valley, or indoors by the fireplace when it turns cool.
It is the special meal of the trip, not a place to drop in: allow a good two hours and book. Booking is by phone, by email or on the platform linked on its website. They ask for a card as a guarantee, and if you cancel with less than 24 hours' notice they charge €95 per cover.
When to go
La Bastide closes in winter. In 2027 it opens from 8 April to 7 November, and booking opens on 23 November 2026, Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 17:00. It serves lunch from 12:00 to 13:30 and dinner from 19:00 to 20:30. From May to September it is closed on Tuesdays and Wednesday lunchtimes; in April, October and November, all day Tuesday and Wednesday. It is a few minutes by car from the centre of Moustiers and has private enclosed parking.

Qué pedir: the seasonal menu, which changes every week with what the garden gives; ask for a table on the terrace under the plane trees.
