Alivetu

Alivetu reflects the shared vision of Timothée and Marie, who met while training at a hospitality school. After several years working in established French restaurants, they chose to create a place that reflects their approach to food and service: considered, welcoming and focused on quality. Their cooking brings together their respective backgrounds, with a strong Mediterranean influence. Marie’s Italian roots and Timothée’s Corsican heritage shape the menu, guiding both flavour combinations and ingredient selection. The name Alivetu, meaning olive grove in Corsican, refers to the family estate in Lumio near Calvi, where olive trees define the landscape. This reference underlines the importance of origin and produce in their work. The result is a menu that moves between Provence, Corsica and Italy, with a clear focus on seasonal ingredients and traditional techniques.
