We set off to discover this formula, basket in hand, with Chef Jérôme Coindre, through the Marché Wilson on the Trocadéro side.Fresh, delicious, seasonal produce, some of it sourced from local producers , is what we're looking for.At the market, the chef allows himself to be inspired by the products on offer and our tastes.
