The grandiose Alleno Paris by Yannick Alléno

In the both grandiose and intimate room, in which the original frescos have been enlisted by the Historical Monuments, each detail has been thoughtfully arranged to ensure an exceptionnal gastronomic moment. Though the modern cuisine he serves, the Parisian chef hands out the excellence of his training under the direction of the best chefs and the forward-thinking of his very own vision.

Extractions® bring sauces up to date, while fermentations invoke products’ specific terroirs, and each course delicately unfolds. Every dish is structured, well-presented and skilfully researched. The whole meal is a remarkable demonstration of Yannick Alléno’s uniquely creative and uncompromising approach.

Born in Puteaux, just outside Paris, Yannick Alléno spent his childhood in the kitchens of family-run bistros in different Paris suburbs. Aged 15, he began to learn from great chefs. His very job was at Le Royal Monceau in Paris under Gabriel Biscay; he then joined Sofitel Porte de Sèvres under Roland Durand, followed by Martial Enguehard. However, it was at Drouant, under Louis Grondard, where he found his maturity and determination. He consolidated his skills under the tutelage of this great chef, whom he greatly admires, and proved himself in his wake, before taking his place as head chef in his own right when he was appointed to run the kitchens at Scribe.
