Provence is a fine dining restaurant inspired by owner Eric Vernice’s French and Italian background and international culinary skills. The upscale establishment is on Grace Bay Road in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos. The restaurant features a blind five-course meal-tasting menu and a selection of French and Italian dishes made with fresh, local ingredients. Local fresh seafood adds to the richness of the men. The Chef’s Table experience offers the option to dine around an open kitchen and see the chefs up close in action.

Owner Eric Vernice is the head chef at Provence. He was born in Roanne, France, where he first learned culinary skills. He went on to work at and head Michelin-starred restaurants in France, Canada, and the Dominican Republic before landing in Turks and Caicos. Chef Eric opened Crust Bakery, which highlights Artisan-style French patisseries. Crust Bakery provides a wholesale service to Turks and Caicos, and their bread and pastries are in many local supermarkets and restaurants.

Chef Eric opened Provence in 2017 to pay homage to his French and Italian ancestry and offer delicious cuisine that fuses creativity and local flavors with respect for traditional French cuisine.
