Gastronomy in Paris in April 2021

16/04/2021

France is known all over the world for its excellent gastronomy and in Paris it can be found around every corner. Even without restaurants, the city has endless options to offer, and here are some of our personal favourites.

 

If cooking is one of your passions and you want to take advantage of this period to experiment with new recipes, you’ll be able   to find ingredients of the highest calibre in Paris. From pâtisseries, boulangeries and chocolateries, to fromageries, bouchers   and épiceries, all you need to do to find the finest ingredients is to step outside. Our personalised gourmet tour, led by   ArtLuxury’s founder Olivier, is the perfect occasion to explore the many gastronomic wonders of the 7^th arrondissement.

 

However, if you are yet to refine your cooking skills but you still want to enjoy a meal entirely made by you, why not take the chance to participate in a private cooking class? Join a Chef in her authentic Parisian apartment to learn how to prepare a typical French meal. Choose from traditional dishes like duck breast, ratatouille and basquais chicken, as well as delicious desserts such as chocolate mousse, pastries and viennoiseries. After one of these classes, you’ll always be able to surprise your dinner guests with some really outstanding dishes!

 

While if you have been dreaming of the days you could go out to eat, and you are just waiting for the day restaurants will be open again, then your wait is over! Even during this period of lockdown, we’ve got you covered with the perfect solution for you as always! You will now be able to enjoy a delicious gourmet lunch in the private dining salon of one of our partner hotels, famous for its exceptional gastronomic quality. If this sounds like the dream you want to turn into a reality today, we can do this for you. All you have to do is contact us.

In addition, to really take your gastronomic experience to the highest level, we offer bespoke dinners and lunches with our new exceptional partner, one of the greatest wine collectors worldwide. He is specialised in rare and aged French wines from the greatest appellations and châteaux, and will design for you the ultimate meal and wine pairing. He will collaborate with a Michelin starred chef to create a tailor-made menu to complement his exclusive wine selection of seven up to twelve – upon the number of guests ( 4 to 12) – ancient and exceptional Grand Crus from his personal cellar.

However, this offer is momentarily unavailable due to the current restrictions, but once these get eased, you will be able to fully enjoy this special experience. This event will normally be organised in the privatised salon of the Chef’s restaurant but, exceptionally, you will even have the possibility to organise it in the private and extremely exclusive wine cellar of our wine collector. Imagine having lunch or dinner surrounded by several thousand aged and mythical wines, which date back to over a century ago, such as Yquem, Petrus, Lafite-Rothschild, Mouton-Rothschild, Latour, Pichot de Longueville, Margaux, Romanée Conti, Chassagne Montrachet, Chateauneuf-Du-Pape, Dom Pérignon, Cristal Roederer, Bollinger…. For this truly perfect and exclusive bespoke meal of the highest possible calibre, just contact us to save the date!
