The ultimate meal. I have been there before, it was actually my first ever full on gastronomic dinner. I was maybe 12 years old and already loved food, so my dad took me there, just us two. It had a huge impact on me, even though the main thing I remember from that meal was that… I fell asleep! I can’t tell you how happy I was to be back in that room, which is more grand than any of the other I’ve been to. Even the famous Paris ones like Crillon or Meurice can’t compare. And it was a truly unforgettable meal, what a 3 Michelin star restaurant should be, with amazing food, perfect service and in the end a whole experience that was what we were looking for.
