Since April 2022, the hotel-restaurant The Clos Normandat Martin-Eglise (Seine-Maritime), changed from owner.

It is now Sophie Bedu who is at the head of the establishment.

She explains her choice: “I have been passionate about cooking since my childhood, my parents live in Martin-Eglise and I spent my youth there before traveling the world for my job. So I decided to put my suitcases in France. So when I learned that the establishment was for sale, I did not miss the bargain. »

For this, she can count on the eight employees who make up her brigade.

“When I acquired the establishment, I wanted to take over all the staff and keep the same operation” emphasizes the new owner. She also hired a pastry chef to help her.

After having had a life as an expatriate in Singapore and in Southeast Asia, Sophie Bedu finds her Norman roots in an establishment with a green setting and she promises to perpetuate this magnificent heritage.
