Menus-Plaisirs – Les Troisgros

Menus-Plaisirs - Les Troisgros

26th TIDF: Greek Premiere

Founded in 1930 in central France, the Troisgros family restaurant has been holding three Michelin stars for 55 years over four generations. Michel Troisgros, the 3rd generation to head the restaurant, has turned over the responsibility for the cuisine to his son César, the fourth generation of Troisgros chefs. From the market to pick fresh vegetables, to a cheese processing plant, a vineyard, an organic cattle ranch to the backyard garden supplying the restaurant, the master of filmed observation embarks us on a mouthwatering and sense-pleasing journey into the family’s three restaurant kitchens. An immersive experience, showing the great artistry, ingenuity, imagination, and hard work of the restaurant staff in creating, preparing, and presenting meals of the highest quality.
