Chefs’ Dinner 2025 Cannes at the Carlton Cannes - Restos du Cœur celebrate 40 years of solidarity

An emblematic anniversary for a cause uniting French gastronomy and generosity

On November 22, 2025, the iconic Carlton Cannes will host a new edition of the Dîner des Chefs (Chefs' Dinner) 2025, a flagship charity gastronomy event on the French Riviera. This year's edition carries exceptional emotional weight as the Restos du Cœur celebrate their 40th anniversary.

Four decades of commitment, solidarity, and shared meals – a powerful human story to which French gastronomy continues to lend its heart, talent, and generosity.

Since their creation in 1985, the Restos du Cœur have embodied mutual aid, generosity, and collective engagement. The Chefs' Dinner is one of the most meaningful expressions of this mission, bringing together renowned chefs every year in support of the association.
