“It’s a match!” The local food movement combines the two antagonist world of cities and countries, while respecting the environment. A trend inspiring many Parisian chefs to the delight of gourmets! On the terrace or to take away, eat local!
Nature reaches for the sky!
Urban agriculture is now taking place in the most unexpected spots of the capital.
The Topager company transforms the roofs of Paris into vegetable gardens. In this green haven, fruits and vegetables happily grow.
The orchard and vegetable garden of the Frame restaurant share the Parisian sky with the Eiffel Tower. At the top of the building, we found 6500 ft² of crops as well as bird and hen houses.
Harvested here, the fresh and seasonable vegetables, the homemade honey and the edible flowers and herbs are then cooked by the masterly skilled chef Andrew Wigger.
The art of taste
Cooking is an art and Parisian chefs are here to prove it. They share with us their love of gastronomy.
Pierre Sang is among them. He pays tribute to his Korean roots with a demanding and fine cuisine.
In addition to traditional dishes, including the bibimbap, a mixture of rice, beef and vegetables, his restaurant serves a delicious smoked eel with its miso soup or a yogurt ice-cream with granola, lemon cream and peach syrup.
Creative and responsible cuisine
In the heart of Essonne, the restaurant Le Doyenné embodies the excellence of 100% locally sourced cuisine, where each dish tells a story of terroir, passion and respect for the environment. Fresh produce sourced locally. Vegetables, meat, cheese, wine… Everything is carefully selected from local producers located within 50 km to offer a menu that changes with the seasons. This approach guarantees impeccable quality and supports the regional economy.
The dishes, created by two great chefs and inspired by the harvest from the vegetable garden, are always generous and daring. Whether for a special event or a romantic dinner, Le Doyenné promises you a committed and delicious culinary experience in a memorable setting.
From farms to fork
Behind the market cuisine of the “Resistants“, you can find a group of friends in love with good food. Here “locally” also means “respectfully.” Respect of the natural cycles, of a sustainable and traceable production. The food is organic and the prices are reasonable.
But what does it taste like? A culinary and gourmet “Tour de France”: beef from Limousin, corn from Touraine, tartlet with clementines from Porto-Vecchio…
On the website, you’ll find the portraits and stories of the producers, including Maxime Bussy, a baker who kneads his bread with water from Parisian artesian wells.
A locavore canteen in Saint-Denis
In the heart of the city of Saint-Denis, the Grand Bouillon Sauvage is reinventing the traditional canteen with its generous locavore cuisine. Here, fresh, seasonal produce takes centre stage and good food is accessible to all. Comforting dishes with authentic flavours combine responsible eating with pleasure.
This former warehouse has been transformed into a welcoming space where you can share meals with friends. Come and discover a canteen like no other, where local, sustainable and tasty ingredients come together for your enjoyment.
