On the menu, dishes paying tribute to French classicism through the plurality of terroirs, wonderfully completed. Proof of it with the pâté en croute, a French cuisine timeless classic changing with the seasons and the chef’s inspiration: surf or turf-inspired, vegetarian… Favorite dish of chef Grégory Réjou, the pâté en croute has a special place on the menu of the L’Envolée; and the current pâté en croute based on free-range Racan pigeon (€21) is perfectly made.
