Celebrating a decade of culinary excellence and joy, on August 6th the Dolce Pétanque Trophy is set to celebrate its 10th anniversary with unparalleled excitement and grandeur.

Originally conceived as a delightful day reserved for chefs, the Dolce Pétanque Trophy has evolved into a prestigious event that brings together culinary professionals and enthusiasts alike. Empowered by the Chaîne for the past four years, the event has grown from a simple pétanque gathering into a day filled with joy, networking and exceptional tastings.
