Thanks to the blogger Zechian, who invited me to join him for lunch, I had the chance to discover the amazing restaurant Le George, one of the three elegant restaurants of this renowned parisian palace.
The concept of Le George is to offer a convivial but gastronomic experience by sharing half portion dishes. In such an incredible restaurant, choice is hard and you always want to test all the menu. Well, choose "à la carte" or the "flavours menu" and trust me, your tastebuds will be more than satisfied !
Before finding Le George, first steps in the lobby are always magnified by incredible flower arrangements from Jeff Leatham. Every three weeks, this talented artistic director invents a new theme for comtemporary and innovative arrangements. At Le George, the guideline is simplicity and Jeff Leatham knows how to highlight the elegance of the place.
The decor
The interior designer, Pierre-Yves Rochon, has created a timeless atmosphere. Beige and grey touches make it very elengant and soothing. White floral arrangements from Jeff Leatham add purity and simplicity to this very chic place.
The Cuisine :
The young and talented Chef Simone Zanoni offers a light and modern Mediterranean-style cuisine with a blend of flavours from French Rivieria and Nothern Italy.
This amazing lunch was a profusion of delighful dishes... Let's start !
Roadted Dublin Bay prawn, citrus and mustard sauce
Sea bream crudo
Semi-cooked red tuna & black truffle petals

Parmesan ice cream could be quite surprising but the alliance with the onion tarte works perfectly well, a delicious starter I highly recommend !
