MEURICE

The restaurant Meurice, attached to the de luxe hotel of the same name, should charm the amateurs of the record of the great centurywith its framework inspired of the castle of Versailles. Nothing was forgotten: marbles, tablecloths, glassmaking, armchairs, all is there to offer one royal moment to you... Side cooks, it is a young chief already credited with two stars, Yannick Alléno, who officiates. The grips of the oil cakes and their Bavarian of lawyer marryperfectly with a certain profusion in the plate. The addition of fish?ufs gives an impressing presentation. The cod is successful, it preserves a light firmness and delivers its subtle perfume underthe tooth. In dessert the wild strawberries on a crusty feuillantine frozen withthe burned cream make it possible in only one mouthful to play withtextures, the densities (tiles, biscuits) and flavours. As for the note, it does not have anything aristocratic. Meurice, even less known than certain de luxe hotels and which seeks to acquireits letters of nobility, propose a kitchen full with audacity at moderate prices.

Average Price : 200 € (without the wine)
