@@nebraskaryan9308 I disagree, I don't find him annoying at all and I appreciate the background info he brings to the table. You're the first person I've ever heard think he's annoying.
Glade to see u back missed watching ur videos. I love watching these videos. I did a few taste menus but there is not many here to do. Wish they had more.
Just to balance back all these negatives comments. I'm french and parisian. I'm what they called a foodie and have tried few michelin stars restaurant in my life. For a special occasion, i had the chance to try his amazing skills and cuisine at his place, in the domaine of Bois Giroult. Even if it's mainly vegetables, i had one of the best meal of my life from a quality and quantity point of view. From A to Z, it's was exquisite
GBG - I absolutely love your channel! It's so hard to find videos where the person isn't trying to make it all about themselves. I love that you allow the food and the restaurant be the star.
My interest had been drawn to this restaurant and it’s chef for a while. Phrase taste the rainbow of colors and emotions on every fork could be a nice introduction and continues throughout the diner , the colors added with orange carrots, red and green’s that are observed on almost every plate doing the trick, oh seems that the place of vegetables in a menu is slightly not the big of a deal for a chef, as it used to, from a time when the restaurant removed all the animal proteins from a menu but they are a huge role in a menu. Merci, for documenting your visit , hope you had a beautiful experience with this diner.
What's amazing about Arpege, is that you really have to go there and taste it to understand. The food seems so simple and unrefined compared to most Michelin restaurants, but when you taste it, it's truly mind blowing. I still remember dining here 10 years ago, and the memory of the onion gratin and vegetable raviolis, are two of the best dishes I've ever had, anywhere.
I am confused at why it cost +500€ when there is not a lot of fancy ingredients, usually for that price you would have truffle and caviar everywhere 😅 it’s mainly vegetables and there is no extraordinary presentation but looks very tasty 😊
Yeah, not entirely sure. I heard Passard has a few really standout meat and fish dishes but that's it. If it was me, I'd go for the gardener's lunch, which is vegetarian but you get around a dozen courses and it's €185 (so less than half the price of dinner).
Great menu , so expensive, wow. I thought it was a bit cheeky charging you 15 euros for ax few herbs in water...."infusion". Why couldn't that be added to the price of the menu ?
I agree. The €10 for water was a bit abusive, too. Given that the tasting menu was mostly vegetables, the water and coffee/tea should be included in the price.
Why do they always say "we have..." to describe each dish? The waiters are not eating with the clients! Service is lacking, at least in English. They should watch a few videos of how service goes in a 3 star restaurant in the UK and US.
Lots of confusion in comments. If you want meat then go somewhere else. It's not like they are tricking you into thinking there will be meat and there is none. As for the price, if you cannot afford it then go somewhere else. Some of you think a vegetarian restaurant cannot get michelin stars. Absurd. 5% of the world is vegetarian. That's like saying since Italians are 0.7% of the world population, no italian restaurants should have michelin stars.
I love your videos but I have to say that I think this menu is a disappointment considering the price. I saw this exact same tasting menu on another channel and I still think that over €500 for a menu made up of mostly vegetables isn't worth it. The spinach dish wasn't even well plated. Looking forward to your next restaurant!
Agreed, but the only thing I would say is that at least if you go vegetable only, you can get the 12-13 course lunch here for €200, which is something of a bargain for a 3* in Paris. Still, I know what you mean, only about half of the dishes looked really appetising to me (loved the look of the desserts, though). Arpege seems to be one of those love it or hate it restaurants. I've heard some walk away deeply unimpressed and others say it's world class.
These dishes don't look like a 3-star Michelin dishes; they lack depth, and the chef could have made them with greater details. These dishes, frankly, could be found at any 1-star michelin restaurants. If I were to be an inspector Arpege would lose a star, for sure.
Good to see you back! This channel and Alexander the Guest are the two best fine dining channels on RUclips.
Alexander is annoying though. This channel is far superior

This is what I say to my lovers- here is your welcome juice. 😂
Looks great. Simple yet elegant. Although I found the big ball of spinach dish a bit weird

@@BragglordAP mentioned a few years ago in an interview that he will no longer focus on meat as much as he used to.
@@HrSamstag I know, nearly all the dishes are veggie now
As a Paris dude, have not been there, but herd a lot of complaints that is too expensive for a lot of veggies. Some even call it a sort of robbery...
Of course, that’s what all the neighbours say. Worldwide. We use to say here (Vienna/Austria) „Envy is a dog.“.

@@HrSamstag What envy? Feedback was from people who have eaten there! Did you have a morning schnapps today? 😃
@@mrn13 Schnaps? Wrong region, you expert.

Sorry, for a 3* star michelin you can not serve a simple boiled egg, mesclun salad, some raw vegetables.
This is not what you expect for a 3 star

Salad and carrot they charge you a fortune for... is this a joke?
3 stars? Ive seen 1 Star Restaurants more creative
I would walk out of there hungry
Good to have seen the video ….so I will not go there for dining ….will spend 500 euros in a better restaurant.
Your vid is great but vege only menu 😢
French have the most Michelin 3 stars restaurants most looks average for a 3 star
hate these type of guest, she says you can eat it with you hands. Eat the damn thing with your hands and not with fork and knive.
She paid 500 euros for this overpriced crap, and she can eat it however she likes. Sort off, loser.
She can eat it however she wants, her choice. Chill.
remove at least 2 stars from them. A FQN joke
Is this a Joke ???
