Renowned chef brings Azur magic to Beijing

The internationally-famous restaurant Mirazur in the French Riviera run by Italian-Argentinean chef Mauro Colagreco - who has strong professional and personal links to Beijing - moved up one place from fourth to third in the World's 50 Best Restaurant 2018 rankings, released by the British magazine Restaurant.

Colagreco, who visits China's capital to bring his own kind of gastronomic inspiration, grew up in a family where fine cuisine always plays a part in the atmosphere.

Having traveled widely to savor various culinary traditions and worked with renowned restaurateurs and chefs, Colagreco established his own Mirazur restaurant in 2006 in Menton, France.
