Tea time at the Peninsula Paris by Anne Coruble and David Bizet

To mark the appointment of the talented Anne Coruble as the new Pastry Chef at the Peninsula Paris, and the return of the famous tea time 6 days a week, we set off to the intimate setting of the Lobby Restaurant, the palace's catering venue, to discover and savor the chef's new tea time, which is sure to win you over.

Anne Coruble, whose creations we've already discovered at Christmas , is now officially the palace's new Pastry Chef. Having worked with Laurent Jeannin and Julien Alvarez at the Bristol in Paris, the Normandy-born chef has what it takes to win us over. Her selection as a Michelin Guide 2021 winner in the Passion dessert selection proves that we haven't heard the last of this young talent.

Tea Time or Afternoon Tea, or l'Heure du thé for the Peninsula Paris, is served daily from 3:00 pm to 6:00 pm. Expect to pay €65 per person for the classic and €85 for the Prestige version, served with a glass of Champagne. You can add to this the Pause Gourmande, which consists of a slice of cake from the pastry buffet, accompanied by a hot drink of your choice for 85€ (break + tea time). The flan is divine, we recommend it!

We love the sublime cookie with its surprising twist of black olive ganache. On the pastry side, we love the Tahitian vanilla toasted with caramelized tobacco leaf. Pavlova lovers will be seduced by the delicious, well-balanced Lemon Confit.

The savoury side, devised by Michelin-starred chef David Bizet, is a welcome change from finger sandwiches! The Baba version of langoustine, the sablé au poivre for cheese and truffle lovers. Last but not least, the scallop crisp with saffron mandarin and caviar is sure to surprise.
