Restaurant Le Meurice

Description:

• Hôtel Meurice proudly speaks of this, its gastronomic jewel. Make a foray into this gorgeous restaurant, whose décor is an extension of the hotel's Louis XV ambiance of luxury and style. Chef Yannick Alléno has earned a Michelin Three-Star rating for his delicious preparations. Make sure you are armed with a reservation, for it's pretty difficult to get a table without one. The staff greets all patrons with equal respect and politesse. The extensive wine list offers excellent and rare vintages to choose from. The chef's repertoire combines the finest traditional ingredients of French cuisine and the creativity of Nouvelle Cuisine. Its perfect achievements include the Koulibiac de saumon fumé aux coquilles St Jacques, (wild salmon immersed in scallops fumed reduction trapped in a thin puff pastry crust) and the Chaud-Froid de Sole (Dover sole filet dressed with mushroom puree and mussels cream). Among the most refined entrees, you can try the Blue Lobster Pricked With Vervain served with Chantelle Mushrooms and sweetened with dry apricots or the exquisite Poached Fillet Of Veal served with Morels. The Melting Chocolate Disc is a must-have for chocolate lovers.
