Ama, cooking from the heart, from the family and from the world
Véronique, a unique figure in Deauville, originally from Paris, moved to Deauville after the birth of her last son to lead a peaceful life and raise her children in a heavenly environment. While she was looking for a professional activity compatible with her life as a mother, she came up with the idea of creating "La Maison", a boutique in her own house, where she sells what she loves, without worrying about trends, inspired by beautiful materials, travels... The success is there, La Maison, a famous store in Deauville. 23 years later, Véronique gives a second wind to "her grandmother's life" as she says, and imagines a restaurant-boutique concept on the Presqu'île. Ama was born.
GOURMET INTERVIEW
Who is Ama? Ama alias Véronique, is her grandmother's name, which means "mother" in Indian. After La Maison, a store dedicated to decorative objects, tableware, jewelry, and small gifts, Ama is now offering a new horizon with a store where the space is set up for furniture. Another big change, which has always been on her mind: cooking. Raised by her great-grandmother, her grandmother and her mother, all three great cooks, Véronique perpetuates the family tradition with Ama. The creation of this new place comes after the death of "Amé", her great-grandmother, who spent her days behind the stove.
What does Ama offer? A new atmosphere, more focused on furniture - carpets, sofas, small pieces of furniture, lighting - but also a cuisine of the heart, of the family and of the world. In the kitchen, Javad, a 38-year-old Iranian refugee and former architect, wants to share his culinary culture. He joined forces with Paola, Véronique's daughter, originally a graphic designer, who left Paris to devote herself to this beautiful project.
A subtle, fresh cuisine, full of aromas, spices and different herbs. The wines are biodynamic. The menu changes once a week, with fresh products, composed boards (Waygu, from Galicia...). Nothing is left to chance!
Her business is ? Her identity, her choices, she never lets herself be influenced by fashion, everything is proposed with her heart and her desires.
Her favorite ? The "creators of love" of her kitchen - Paola and Javad - she says with stars in her eyes.
