In a context where French cuisine is looking to reinvent itself while preserving its heritage, Maison Loko’s pâté-croûte bar offers a fresh take on an ancestral craft. This unique concept in France is part of the gastronomic revival that Marseille has been experiencing in recent years.
The Art of Pâté-Croûte
It’s Laura TARIZZO, a Marseille chef and co-founder of Maison Loko, who is orchestrating this new gastronomic adventure. Trained at the Paul Bocuse Institute, she blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary creativity: “Pâté-croûte is a traditional art that we are reinventing with a contemporary and relaxed spirit.”

A bold Provençal menu
The menu is designed as a culinary journey through the seasons and the Provençal terroir, featuring unique pairings: «Flavors of the Calanques»: a signature creation combining octopus, pastis, and fennel, «Provençal Tradition»: a daring reinterpretation of pieds paquets, «Summer Feathers»: a subtle harmony of duck, artichokes, and figs , «Winter Sun» and «Autumn Crunch» round out this tempting salty collection.

A sweet twist on pâté-croute
Maison Loko goes bold by creating two sweet pâté-croutes : « Snowy Peaks » with chestnuts and blackcurrants, and « Christmas in Provence », a true delightful tale with flavors of calissons and orange blossom. These are bold and unique combinations! So, are you more of a sweet or savory team? To find out, the best way is to taste it… And to indulge, you'll need to spend €25.00 for a half, and €45.00 for the whole treat. You can also order your sweet or savory pâté-croute for the Christmas festivities.
