The Toqué Bus is not just a simple tourist bus that will allow you to discover the most beautiful views of Paris! This new concept, imagined by two Toqués, Stéphane and Vincent, invites you to enjoy a delicious gastronomic meal in the upper part of the bus, which has been transformed into a real restaurant.
As soon as you enter the bus, the staff invites you to "get rid" of your coat and other cumbersome personal belongings to put them in the checkroom, located at the front of the bus, and then you head for the upper floor! Change of scenery! To everyone's surprise, you are transported in an instant to a magnificent restaurant under a glass roof, a very bright space with a sumptuous table setting.
Take a seat on one of the 38 pink-backed banquettes! Most of them are tables of 2, for romantic couples or for a nice business lunch for example, but the two ends of the bus offer tables for up to 8 people. Everyone is well seated? The journey can begin!
Let's go for a tour of Paris to discover the most fashionable streets and monuments of the Capital! On each table, you will find a tablet with a unique application designed especially for our "toqués". As you travel, the application geo-locates the bus and automatically launches videos giving tourist explanations of the places visited. The application offers 6 languages: French, English, Italian, Spanish, German and Japanese.
On the plate, the Bus Toqué offers a "Parisian" menu of recipes, evolving and elaborated with respect to the seasons by Cirette Traiteur. The menu will change every two months in order to respect the seasonality of the products used.
For this first period, here is what you will find in your plate:
Mise en bouche :
Duck foie gras from Rougié SARLAT, parsley breadcrumbs
***
Appetizer :
Marinated salmon, ginger essence, dill cream and parmesan chips
***
Main course :
