La Noccemada's table, beyond our walls

Traditional Lebanese recipes reimagined with the finest produce from our Provençal terroir, prepared fresh each day, entirely homemade, with no industrial ingredients or artificial additives. Perfect for a leisurely lunch, an intimate dinner or an indulgent apéritif.

Delivered lakeside, in the village or to your door
Home delivery, collection from a partner retailer, or a meeting-point drop-off in your village.
From July to the end of August, simply let us know your beach (accessible by road) — we will find our way to you.
For an evening together, the secret picnic transforms a hidden corner of the Verdon into your own private table.
Lebanese mezzés reimagined by the chef
Behind picnics.fr lies the kitchen of La Noccemada. Stephan, your private chef — trained in Michelin-starred establishments, grand palaces in Geneva, Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat and Monaco, aboard private yachts and with prestigious companies such as Cunard and Seabourn — brings his own vision to the art of the mezze: traditional Lebanese recipes, enriched each week with new creations, crafted from locally sourced fresh produce and the aromatic herbs of our Provençal terroir.
Two principal formats: a platter for one to two guests (preserved lemon houmous, smoked aubergine moutabal, muhammara, tabbouleh, falafels, fatayers, crudités and fresh fruit) and a full platter for two to three guests, featuring charcoal-grilled kefta skewers, shish taouk, crispy rikakats, toum with Haute-Provence olive oil and a surprise dessert. Today's selection and pricing are available at picnics.fr.

The secret picnic: a dinner for two in a hidden corner of the Verdon
This is, without doubt, the most romantic of evenings under the stars. You choose a date; five hours beforehand, the route arrives on your phone; at the appointed time, a GPS link guides you to the precise location. Everything is already in place: a generous tablecloth, cushions and rugs, LED lanterns, a speaker for your own music, a lavish spread of the chef's finest preparations and a handwritten note to welcome you. Then, for two full hours, the world is entirely yours.
Lakeside, with open views stretching into the distance or nestled in a lavender field, this experience is perfect for an unforgettable marriage proposal or a truly special anniversary. Optional enhancements include champagne, live musicians or a belly dancer. Discover and book at picnics.fr/experience.
