Romain Van Thienen

A passionate Chef, a signature style

At this address, just steps from the Opéra, Romain Van Thienen has found his true stage for expression. Trained by masters of French gastronomy such as Cyril Lignac, Yannick Alléno, and Olivier Bellin, he now leads the kitchens of this Parisian restaurant, which he describes as grand in both its heritage and its renown. Guided by three centuries of history and a fervent advocate for local sourcing, he crafts a bourgeois and seasonal cuisine, delicately punctuated with botanical touches, earning the restaurant a distinction in the Michelin Guide and firmly rooting it in the present day. His menu revisits the great classics of French cuisine, blending heritage with modernity. Joyful and generous, he imparts his enthusiasm and expertise to his team, promising a true journey of flavors and shared experiences.

Seasonal cuisine

Between Parisian tradition and modernity

The chef's cuisine is a constant quest for balance between depth and lightness. Each creation places the product at the heart of the plate, meticulously prepared to reveal its true essence. Sauces are clear, cooking times are perfectly controlled, seasonings are precise: a clear and elegant culinary style, where technique fades into the background, giving way to emotion. Blending established tradition with contemporary sensibility, his cuisine celebrates a vibrant, authentic French gastronomy, perfectly rooted in its time.
