LA TABLE DES CHEFS: CHEF KELLY RANGAMA
Chef Kelly Rangama who has one Michelin star, will take over from Florian Barbarot at La Table des Chefs in Reims on 2 December 2023. She will run the restaurant in Reims for three months, offering an immersive, innovative experience based on her cuisine and G.H. Mumm cuvées.
The Menu
Kelly Rangama plays a full role in the explorations of La Table des Chefs, sharing her sense of discovery and innovation.  It’s a sun-kissed escape of Caribbean flavours, featuring multiple surprises such as Kaffir lime, rose geranium and coriander. Patagonian toothfish with lemon rougail and bacon foam is the centrepiece, a fish that is symbolic of La Réunion. The main course is preceded by Scallops carpaccio with lychee petals and Kaffir lime, or fried Cep mushrooms with smoked beetroot seasoning and fresh walnuts. For dessert, mango is blended with lemon/vanilla sorbet and coriander cream, for a fully consistent end to the meal.
Food Pairing
While seeking a balance with the different cuvées, her gastronomic menu with exotic accents – in 3, 4 or 6 sequences – is a unique experience, a perfect match for the richness of the terroir.
Kelly Rangama’s menu is available 4 days out of 7 at lunch and dinner, accompanied by Mumm Cordon Rouge and Mumm RSRV Blanc de Blancs 2015 cuvées.
I adore champagne. I fell in love with Maison Mumm’s spirit of continual innovation in the way it creates and blends its wines. Our two worlds are a perfect match. It’s the first time that Mumm has worked with a female chef, and so for me it’s a great honour, as well as a challenge.
