Last week, Moet & Chandon lifted the veil on Le & at Moet & Chandon, a pop-up luxury restaurant at its historic L’Orangerie estate in Paris, featuring the cuisine of Yannick Alleno, a world-famous Michelin-starred chef.

Open now through the month of July, the restaurant combines Alleno’s culinary technique with Moet winemaker Benoit Gouez’s expert understanding of Champagne to offer consumers an unprecedented gastronomic experience highlighting Champagne’s versatility with food. Introduced to celebrate the release of Moet’s Grand Vintage 2006, its newest vintage bottling, the restaurant is not only a pilgrimage-worthy attraction for the luxury consumer, but makes for a fantastic summer vacation.

Le & offers 4 stand-out culinary experiences:

  • A “7 salt bar” showcases the effects of salinity on Champagne through texture and taste in a series of gourmet appetizers including dim sum with pork extract, Fregola Sarda with shellfish, oyster with cucumber extract and more.
  • The Cookooning Cellar is the restaurant’s main dining room connected to an open Molteni kitchen where pike terrine brioche with mushroom extract and butter with lobster coral is prepared to be served with Moet & Chandon Grand Vintage Collection 1985 – a fantastic magnum bottling from the house’s expansive cellar.
  • A Blind Shot Room, with all light and sound removed, offers guests the opportunity to heighten their senses of taste and smell while all other senses are deprived, so that they may focus only on the sublime sparks that fly when Champagne is married to gourmet cuisine.
  • The Delice Club transforms the 19th-century estate into a contemporary lounge, where Alleno’s dessert courses are served along Moet & Chandon Grand Vintage 1999 and Imperial Rose wines.

Reservations for Le & at Moet & Chandon can be made at www.moet.com, for 450 Euro ($609 USD) per person, with a minimum party size of 4 people.
