Saint-Martin has been vibrating the region since Friday evening. Thousands of people are expected to taste the gargantuan menu, around a table or during a walk. And yet, in a daily life where it is a question of paying attention to eating healthily, or conversely eating quickly in a fast food restaurant, the Saint-Martin menu goes against the grain. The actors Marc Donnet-Monay, Vincent Rime and Philippe Soltermann were at Inter in Porrentruy on Thursday to present the show “A table!” “. A comedy that laughs at our eating habits. The author of the play, Philippe Soltermann, has already participated in this meal and he gives us his vision of pork. “There is a notion of pleasure, which we tend to forget in food. » According to the Vaudois, “it is above all the pleasure of being at the table for a long time, it is not nothing to be with friends for a long time at a meal”. Eating too much, making too much noise, staying too long, a transgression of usual norms: “It’s a luxury unfortunately not common enough”.
The taste of the land
What attracts visitors from outside the Jura borders is also the taste according to Philippe Soltermann: “We still have tastes specific to Saint-Martin”. While supermarkets offer products from all over the world all year round, “consumption eludes us”. Gradually, “we lose the taste of food and Saint-Martin is the taste of the land. It is a heritage, the heritage of taste. It’s something that should be passed on,” according to Philippe Soltermann. /ncp
