Singer and actress, as well as coach on the show The Voicethe artist of Corsican origins remembers the places of her childhood, and reveals to us the local specialties that she “handles well” in the kitchen.
A happy childhood between Nice and Corsica
In his childhood, Jenifer lived in the “relatively modest neighborhood” of Pasteur, northeast of Nice, “among the tall buildings”. There then reigns a spirit of community and mutual aid which has shaped his education around “the concept of sharing“.
“I have always been in love with the old town”
She loves to walk around Old Nice and have a drink with his friends at Cours Saleya. Part of his family, on his mother’s side, lives in Corsica. Jenifer therefore has the opportunity to spend time there, Ajaccio.
Corsica, dense and intense
In love with the old town of Ajaccio, the singer also greatly appreciates the change of scenery that the walks to the Sanguinaires Islandsor hikes in the forest of Vizzavona “which is sublime”.
“In Corsica, you sometimes feel at the other end of the world when it’s very close, it’s right there. I recommend it to everyone because it heals and heals wounds. It’s powerful”

Apart from the island of beauty, the first winner of the Star Ac’ has a particular affection for Brittanyfascinated by its landscapes. “There is something mystical and nostalgic that pleases me”she says before adding: “I’m in love with Paris as well obviously, but it’s a different excitement”.

“I’m an epicurean so, of course, I’m looking for the right restaurant, where we’re going to eat well, where we’re going to dip. Not the little dietary thing”
However, do not ask him to simmer a socca from Nice. With frankness and humor, the interpreter of the title Save who loves
explains: “I tried to do it and it was really disgusting”. On the other hand, it defends itself very well against Corsican cannelloni, brocciu or meatand at the level of gratins dauphinois for which it considers that it is “the best” !
