Germain Passedat, grandfather to G\u00e9rald, bought Villa Corinthe in 1917. Renamed Le Petit Nice, it quickly became a benchmark establishment, popular with painters, poets, actors and directors seeking a place to relax. In 1954, the next generation stepped up with son Jean-Paul, who would help Le Petit Nice gain its first two stars in the Michelin Guide. G\u00e9rald joined his father's kitchen in 1985, took the helm in 1987 and obtained the coveted third Michelin star in 2008. Under his direction, Le Petit Nice remains a \"seaside inn\u201d in the finest sense of the term, but it is also becoming one of the most charming Relais &amp; Ch\u00e2teaux hotels out there (*):<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Le Petit Nice Passedat\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JvQid6uoXcE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>One of G\u00e9rald Passedat's secrets comes from his strong ties to local fishermen, built up by working alongside them to create specifications that respect seafood sizes and the seasons, and by promoting traditional fishing techniques. What's more, he doesn't hesitate to stride waist-deep into the Mediterranean to better harvest underwater treasures like seaweed or little-known species of rockfish.
