The menu revives dishes once served in legendary institutions such as Café de Paris and Le Grand Véfour, where the great chefs of the time reigned. Expect the likes of chicken-liver and foie gras parfait with Sauternes jelly, quenelles de brochet with lobster and sauce Américaine, and saddle of lamb Belle Époque. Some recipes had all but vanished, others slipped between the pages of history - until now.
With period music, historical storytelling, and dishes revived from the city's golden age, this is a delicious historical resurrection.
