From Cannes to Los Angeles, two cities of cinema, two atmospheres, and a couple of restaurateurs
Miramar Plage The Origins
The origin of the Miramar
At the origin of the Miramar, there is a couple of restaurant pioneers, David and Fanny Rolland. Both adopted the city of Cannes at a very young age and were always immersed in the restaurant world. Fanny learned the trade with her restaurateur parents in the village of Bar-sur-Loup, in the Côte d’Azur countryside. David built up a large experience by occupying different positions in the restaurant business, from holiday clubs to prestigious establishments as the Noga Hilton in Cannes, and an important retailer of food products.
Miramar Plage The Origins
Like a tasty exploration
In 2001, their dream comes true as they open a wine bar in Cannes, Le Petit Paris, then Miramar Plage in 2006. While enjoying life and travelling, David and Fanny dream up the Miramar as an exploration of flavours. A few years later they transform the setting of the beach to mirror their dreams : elegant, welcoming and warm. The rejuvenation of the Croisette in 2019 is the opportunity to transform the beach, create a new setting, an innovative concept, while preserving the qualities that our loyal customers love.

Los Angeles
After the success of Le Petit Paris Cannes restaurant, the couple of exploring entrepreneurs open Le Petit Paris Los Angeles, USA in 2015. Situated in the El Dorado building, these landmark walls dating from the early 20th century and the beginnings of American cinema offer a magical setting with an outside patio, numerous light wells, golden columns and large rounded crystal chandeliers that flow from the ceiling. In the plates, we can find the Rolland couple brand : international inspirations, a French touch, quality products and a refined cuisine.

Julien Hocquaux
Sharing their time between two continents, David and Fanny entrusted the management of Plage Miramar to Julien Hocquaux. As a globe-trotter, he learnt the restaurant trade abroad. When he joined Miramar in 2008 as chef de rang, the bond between the passionate restaurateur and the beach is immediate. He won’t leave it anymore.
