Chez Bastianin Plan-de-la-Tour · Saint-Tropez

The Brotherhood

The Carnivores'
Club.

Seven soirées a year devoted to exceptional meat. A masterclass, a discovery, a feast. For those who make the table a rite.

The principle

Seven gatherings, two levels.

The Carnivores' Club is not an academic masterclass. It is a brotherhood — a circle of enthusiasts, of initiates, and of a few Masters. We eat, we talk, we learn without even realising it. The Josper flares up, the knives come to the table, Valeria brings out bottles that were never on the list.

Level I

Initiate

You take part in the soirées. You discover. You share. No prerequisites.

Level II · by invitation

Master Carnivore

You host the soirées alongside Manuel. You propose cuts, pairings. You bear the title.

The ritual of the Brotherhood

The Ten Commandments
of the Carnivores

The Master proclaims · The Initiates respond

  1. I.

    Thou shalt honour the embers and the blood-rare cook.

    « Glory to the fire! »

  2. II.

    Thou shalt never utter the words "well done".

    « Rare or nothing! »

  3. III.

    Thou shalt respect the animal and its sacrifice.

    « From nose to tail! »

  4. IV.

    Fat is life — not thine enemy.

    « Long live the marbling! »

  5. V.

    Thou shalt never pair water with great meat.

    « Wine is our blood! »

  6. VI.

    Ageing is an art — and the butcher, the artist.

    « Time makes the taste! »

  7. VII.

    The bone is the finest travelling companion.

    « Down to the marrow! »

  8. VIII.

    Thou shalt know the breed, the farm and the terroir of thy meat.

    « Honour to the farmer, glory to the beast! »

  9. IX.

    Thou shalt honour the butcher as thou honourest the winemaker.

    « Glory to the artisans of taste — without them, nothing! »

  10. X.

    Thou shalt respect all choices… but thou shalt always choose the meat.

    « Bastianin is watching! »

« Here, well-done is banished,
marbling is king,
and the wine flows for free spirits. »

The official anthem

The Anthem of the
Carnivores' Club

To be sung together · at the top of your voice

To meat lovers all across France,

We present to you the Carnivores!

We work our magic over flame,

No cow is ever safe again.

Barbecue, brasero or plancha,

Go, Carnivores, go!

Bring out the tomahawks!

Let us eat, let us drink and of course…

Plenty of good plonk!

Meat is our life!
