Advertising feature A natural extension to the restaurant is
Saveurs outside catering service. Freshly cooked menus can be supplied
for small events to big weddings as well as birthdays, themed parties and corporate events, with the dishes complimented by Guylaine’s expertise in wine. Together Julien and his co-chef Forty Bukauskas, who also worked at John Burton Race’s award-winning restaurant, and the new manageress Julia Hallett comprise Saveurs ‘dream team,’ Julien laughed. He added: ‘We are all passionate about food.’
Julien and Forty work hard every day,
creating, crafting and cooking Saveurs unique flavour explosions which even include curing their own meats in the form of salami and pancetta. Saveurs delicatessen also sells unique French cheeses and seasonal chutneys and jams which are either made in its kitchens or sourced from carefully selected suppliers.
With all these scrumptious treats on offer it’s no surprise Saveurs’ customers
entered their favourite patisserie into TV’s Britain’s Best Bakery competition, which pitted local independent bakers in head- to-head challenges. Saveurs swept the board in the South
West before going on to be jointly crowned best bakery in the South. Julien said: ‘We made it to the final six.
We were the only Continental bakery in the competition so probably that means we are the best continental bakery! ‘We were very surprised to have been
put in for the show by our customers. It was very unexpected but fantastic for us. It’s nice to have the recognition after the hard work we have put into the shop.’ The couple plan to introduce an online
ordering service to their website and Julien has also shared the secrets of some of his favourite recipes via a series of You Tube videos, which can be viewed via their website
www.saveurs.co.uk. As well as demonstrating how to make
traditional French baguettes and bread, the videos also reveal how Julien makes
SAVEURS
ham hock terrine, hot chocolate fondants, home-made piccalilli plus raspberry and chocolate mousse cake to name but a few. Since its launch in 2008 Saveurs
has grown into a treasured pearl on Dartmouth’s shores and Julien and Guylaine have no intention of letting it lose any of its lustre. Together with their 3-year-old son, Taik, and the newest addition to their family an adorable puppy, the couple have put down roots in the town. ‘We love the area, it’s beautiful,’
Guylaine said. ‘We’ve made lots of friends here, people are very friendly and welcoming. It’s a nice place to build a family.’ Saveurs is open Monday to Thursday from 8am to 5.30pm, Fridays and Saturdays from 8am to 9.30pm and Sundays from 8.30am to 9.30pm.
