Il ressort de ce dîner beaucoup d'aboutissement et de réflexion pour offrir une si belle expérience aux clients. Bravo à toute l'équipe
- We understand this is a tasting menu, however, having experienced many restaurants around Paris and many menus dégustation, we found the portions tiny.
- The 5 wines chosen were insufficient for an 8 course meal. Only the last one, served with dessert was good. The previous 4 were completely bland.
- The restaurant does not offer bread, or bread and butter as a nice side offer. This is something we strongly think it should be revised. Only the cheese plate, as an extra, brought 2 slices of bread. One for each. You should not ration bread.
- Even though like I said some of the dishes were really tasty, the ingredients are not at all premium for this type of service provided and prices charged. One St. Jacques, one sliver of fish, pear, all available for cheap at local supermarkets do not qualify as premium produce.
- Pigeon, is not a consensual ingredient. An animal that is seen as a pest going around every city as a nuisance, is probably best left out of any tasting menu. You could have it a la carte though. People will always wonder about the provenance of this bird.
All in all, although we had a good time and the service provided by the staff was top notch, we felt that the menu itself is made on the cheap side, either by quality of the products and their quantity and charged at a very high price.
Mind you I am not a foodie, but as a French cuisine lover and being on a gastronomic tour around the best degustation restaurants in Paris, this was the worst experience I had so far. I will try to be the most honest I can:
Apart from the staff who were very kind and helpful, in the end I had this strong feeling of much ado about nothing.
A poor selection of wines, most of them very bland and underrated, nothing new or different from a regular quartier brasserie or a local supermarket.
Then the food and flavors were nothing more than a repeating of French cliches. I had this strange feeling of lowest effort and maximum gain which at sometimes infuriated me. Serving onion soup mixed in a moulinex, a miserable coquille de St Jacques or two separated dishes which were almost the same, a tiny langoustine and its own broth, revealed a complete lack of creativity.
But the worst in my opinion was when they served me pigeon as if it were the best delicacy ever. Pigeon is nowhere a delicacy, it might be a regional dish, end of conversation. For some people it might as well be repulsive. If the intention was including an exotic dish such as any kind of game, there were more suitable choices such as pheasant or deer, but pigeon, give me a break!
All of this just to say that this meal cost around 470 euro, when I suspect most of the ingredients were bought at the local carrefour supermarket.
My advice, be aware of these newest expensive tourist traps.
I still see some potential in this place but for god’s sake if you want to keep afloat follow my advice and do not follow this path, it will lead you to a complete disaster.
Accord mets et vins vraiment très bon, de belles découvertes !
Service attentif et gentil, mon seul bémol, il faut réclamer du pain car il n'est pas proposé à table.
CECI EST UN AVIS DE QUELQU'UN QUI AIME BIEN MANGER..
點了wine pairing喜歡甜點酒是柚子????果實酒
L'accueil est chaleureux, ni guindé ni familier, tout comme la déco, sobre et élégante.
Félix nous raconte une histoire en nous présentant les plats, ce qui rend la dégustation encore plus vivante. Chaque plat est un tableau qui se déguste d'abord avec les yeux et qui ravit les papilles ensuite. L'accord mets vins (natures) est parfait
Clément Vergeat est un chef talentueux, on sent que rien n'est là par hasard, chaque ingrédient a sa place et les associations font mouche !
Il y a beaucoup de sincérité dans cette cuisine et dans le service et ça se ressent :)
Je pense qu'on n'est pas loin de l'étoile !
Un grand merci à toute l'équipe pour ce beau moment.
Très bon service, proximité du chef, un plaisir.
En ce qui concerne le repas, je dois dire que j'ai été enchanté par la diversité et la qualité des plats proposés. Chaque bouchée était un délice pour les papilles ! Les ingrédients étaient frais, les saveurs bien équilibrées, et la présentation des assiettes était artistique. Le chef a clairement un talent indéniable pour créer des combinaisons de saveurs qui ravissent les sens.
Le service était impeccable tout au long du repas, avec des serveurs attentifs et courtois qui ont pris le temps de répondre à toutes mes questions et de s'assurer que j'avais tout ce dont j'avais besoin.
En somme, cette soirée au restaurant a été une véritable expérience gastronomique mémorable. Je le recommande vivement à tous les amateurs de bonne cuisine et d'ambiance agréable. C'est sans aucun doute l'un des meilleurs restaurants que j'ai eu la chance de découvrir, et j'ai hâte d'y retourner pour me délecter à nouveau de leurs délicieuses créations culinaires. Bravo au chef et à toute l'équipe pour leur excellent travail !
