Restaurant in Paris offering a minimalist menu, dishes of 3 or 4 products and a creative cuisine.
Garance is one of those restaurants that people talked very much about at their opening. Garance... Perhaps like this colour that can take a wine before aging. It is even possible insofar as the initiator of the project, Guillaume Muller, was a former wine keeper at Alain Passard. Guillaume Iskandar, who was also at this same prestigious establishment, as well as at Petit Nice in Marseille and at Septime, runs the kitchen. Garance, perhaps also like this nuance which was used as a base for the colour of the curtains in the restaurant, the rest is rather bare and takes up with some success the style of the trendy minimalist neo-industrial interior of the moment: transparent cellar, Serge Mouille lamps, raw wood, stainless steel, polished concrete, Flow chairs published by MDF Italia, and, of course, a kitchen completely open on the ground floor on a unique bar of six seats. The menu reflects the setting: minimalist, of good taste, contemporary. Soil-grown endive, Cantal and Iberian ham, yellow chicken, venere rice juice, leeks and Pontoise cabbage: each dish contains three or four products. No doubt, we are here in good company. In fact, the dishes of Guillaume Iskandar are not disappointing. Fresh and frontal, they are at the service of products and taste, without any frills or complication, like his cuisine, reflecting the great creativity. A cuisine of an artist in all.

Cuisine et vins dans le menus en 5 étapes
Accueil et ambiance très chaleureuse
Bien sûr à renouveler très rapidement
Merci à Guillaume et son équipe
A l'exception de l'entrée ( tomates très gouteuses) , des mets sans grand intérêt : pommes de terres grenailles sans gout et pas trop bien cuites en accompagnement du mini morceau de lotte, un mijoté de porc avec 3 tellines - pas convaincant, le feuilleté du mini millefeuilles aux figues laissé ,semble-t-il, au frigo et donc comme rassis.
Des vins couteux , pas en phase avec le service - trop familier- et l'environnement ( couverts non changés entre les plats,et cadre bien fatigué ,donnant une impression générale d'une propreté un peu médiocre).
Nous ne recommanderons pas ce restaurant.
