Looking for an extraordinary taste escape without leaving the French capital? Think Laurier. Located in the heart of Galeries Lafayette Champs-Elysées, this new jewel by chef Andréas Mavrommatis offers a culinary immersion directly on the shores of the Mediterranean and the Aegean Sea.
The logical consequence of the chef's passion for Greek cuisine, this restaurant and tea room, like his previous addresses, is a vibrant tribute to the rich Hellenic culinary tradition. Laurier doesn't just present these classics; he reinvents them while preserving their essence.
What strikes you first is the attention paid to ingredients. The menu, which changes with the seasons, is based on products of Greek origin. However, an exception is made for fresh produce such as meat, fish and vegetables.
A unique culinary detail, the vertical rotisserie designed by the chef himself, guarantees perfect cooking. Unlike traditional cooking, here the food cooks right next to the flames, ensuring even cooking throughout.
To taste, the grilled octopus is exemplary in its tenderness, while the rich taste of the red label farm chicken marinated on skewers literally melts in your mouth. Dolmadès bring back memories of Greek beaches, while the delicate texture of red tuna and grilled Halloumi AOP and Féta AOP offer a harmonious dance of flavors on the palate. Those with a sweet tooth will be charmed by the Aegina PDO pistachio macaroon.
And what better accompaniment to these delights than Laurier 's carefully selected Greek wines? Every glass promises to enhance this culinary adventure.
