La Dame de Pic

A landmark on the map of great Parisian restaurants: Anne-Sophie Pic opened her Parisian location a stone's throw from the Louvre. It may be 550km from Valence, where her name has left such a mark on the history of cuisine (her father and grandfather also secured three Michelin stars there), but it embodies her signature style. Delicate, precise cuisine, coupled with a lively sense of inspiration: such is the hallmark of this grande dame of gastronomy. Her feel for the harmony of flavours, freshness and accuracy is ever present, always shored up by the cooking times and seasonings she has down to a T: berlingots with farmhouse Camembert, smoked corn and sweet vernal velouté; monkfish roasted in hazelnut butter, cruciferous leaves, green jus with Vietnamese coriander; Tarte tatin-style Williams pear, beer ice cream and sobacha.
