- Опубликовано: 9 сен 2024
- Join me in Paris, at the newest 3 Michelin star restaurant, called Le Gabriel.
It’s located inside La Réserve Hotel and Spa.
In 2015, Le Gabriel opened it’s doors with Chef Jerome Banctel on the pass.
Within a year they had 2 michelin stars, and got the third this year in 2024.

My name is Alexander. I’m the co-owner of a ONE Michelin star restaurant, and I’m on a mission - to find inspiration in gastronomy. I love fine dining, good wine and sharing what I know with other people.
Check out my restaurant:

This is how a French 3 michelin star restaurant in Paris should be. None of the pretentious, but whilst maintenance the class, elegance and personality of individuals.
So so Yes :)
You didn't think the restaurant was pretentious? 😂
Yes I thought it was interesting that apart from dessert there were bot many overly decorative touches . The dishes looked good because they looked like good ingredients immaculately cooked. Fewer tweezered micro flowers and blobs of colour
@@CrowsofAcheronnot really . Over the top luxury and exclusive maybe . Pretentious suggests pretending to more than what is actually there. But if you look at the dishes, they are for that level quite simply presented and rely on the quality of ingredients and cooking . Some of the wines on this tasting are widely considered to be at the pinnacle of the craft . It sounds odd because the cost of the pairing was high but I think it represented value for money . if you wanted to try those wines any other way you’d end up spending a huge amount of money . Pretentious would have been to serve lesser wines and make a big fuss of it . This place just wants to serve the best
@@CrowsofAcheron No? Something being out of your price range does not make it pretentious.
There was something very lovely about the ambient noise of people conversing.
Yes!
Elite profile picture I must admit
@@user-zi9nh2dr6o Agreed. This reviewer does strike me as pretentious at times.
@@christinecamleyWas talking about the guy who posted the comment, but now that you point it out I can kinda hear it
Or maybe that’s just because you said it, I dunno
wr, outx, can outx etc any nmw s perfx
No one reviews a restaurant like you do, Sir. Not only do you critique the food as a professional chef but without any pretense of being above the audience. We watch your videos every night and send them to our adult children and friends. We appreciate all the work that goes into these videos and we thank you 🙏 and your team. Much blessings to all ❤
you are awesome
I’m a simple man, when I see Alexander I click and watch.
You are clearly a man of sophistication.
You’re a simple, yet smart man.
Yup 😌
Totally agree impossible not to click
Indeed.
Alex’s love and enthusiasm for the fine dining experience is infectious. I can only imagine what it is like to dine with him
Watching this channel regularly, it really seems the mark of the elusive third star depends on the personal quality and social skills of the server and sommelier.
Service is such a huge amount of the restaurant experience. Food can be fantastic and you can still have a terrible night if the service is bad. On the other hand, with the right server, the food doesn't matter so much, because the night is great as a result of their facilitating it.
Apparently, officially, the Michelin guide doesn't actually consider the service in the rating, only the food. That's why you can have some street food venues with a Michelin star. However I'm not sure if that's the reality in practice
Wolfgang Puck did an interview where he spoke about the difference between two and three star restaurants. He essentially said that while a two star restaurant might have phenomenal food and service, in a three star restaurant, everything has been considered. From how you approach the entrance, the cutlery, how the dishes are presented, everything.
you are awesome
I think this was my favourite episode so far. Great work Alexander, ATG team and the team from Le Gabriel!
this and the alchemist video
This and the Plenitude episodes were my favourites. Le Gabriel and Plenitude had some similarities, both being traditional 3 star restaurants in Paris. I also liked the Core by Clare Smyth ("most affordable 3 star") and the Enoteca Pinchiorri episodes.
Alchemist was too out there for me.
I also liked watching the episodes were very expensive experiences are fall short, such as the Venice Simplon Orient Express episode and the Sketch episode.
One of the best for sure!
you are awesome
The laugh when seeing the Romanée Conti is what I love about those experiences. It gives you pleasure and amazement (and fun!)
Haha true!
It was a DRC wine but not the Conti itself though.
@@barath4545 still isn't cheap or easy to get
Of all the restaurants Alexander has brought us to, this is the one that makes me want to try it! I guess I'm old school. the wine pairing is stunning, too!
Yeah : Yquem, batard Montrachet , vega unico, romanee Krug all on one pairing. I’m sure it helps that Alexander is known . But I’m sure if I turned up and was prepared to spend the cash I’d have a great time
you are awesome
@@martinmoore5758the krug was added as it is shown on the recipe so i dont think they prepared it but maybe
What wine glasses are used here, especially the one around tje 12 min mark
“No music” is music to my ears! Love it!
No music is always better than Bad music. I don't know why a lot places think that since they like the music surely everyone else will like it too. Hahahahahahaha 😂!!!
As an avid music lover, and amateur musician, I agree. Some things in life are better left without it.
This episode wow! This actually brought a tear in my eye, The service, the food, seeing you so happy, it almost felt like I was there aswell.
Your enthusiasm is infectious Alexander. You live to eat not eat to live..
That's not what the majority of people on earth do.....they eat to live if they are lucky enough to get some food!
@@chrishayes312 This isn't feed the world commercial. It's a channel showing fine dining content to foodies who might not afford to experience it in person .
no big story, no concept play, no useless stuff!!!! Root back to the essence of food/dining/experience, love ittttttt!!!!!!!
seeing the tool to pick up the napkin without touching it, or the breadcrumbs picker,... it's such an interesting part of fine dining. i'd love to see more of that or learn more about it.
great video (as always), and a great restaurant!
Great point about those small details. (Speaking of which -- Alexander took time, to comment on how much effort and attention, he thought had gone into the warm towels.) I've seen the "bread crumb sweeper" a time or two in restaurants -- but never the "napkin tongs." I can't help but wonder -- is the 'plan' to offer guests a clean napkin, partway through the meal? Or do the tongs only come out, when a guest requests a clean napkin?
@@phillipbarlow9387 The bread crumb sweeper is standard in every hi-end or michellen restaurant which "sport" tablecloth.Alternatively,the waiter will use a triangural folded cloth napkin "driven" by a pair of forks to sweep the bread crumbs on a bb plate.As far as the napkins tongs, i have never used it.Instead i used a pair of silver dinner spoons to change the old napkin with a fresh one whenever the customer left his seat e.g. for the rest room of the customer napkin was becoming stained...
I adore when Alexander get giddy seeing the Domaine de La Romanée-Conti right before his eyes
Cher Alexandre Vous appréciez à sa juste valeur une certaine perfection « a la française » Vous méritez des éloges pour votre très bon goût et votre regard attentif aux détails de cette forme de gastronomie olympienne ! Longue vie à votre émission !
For the Q&A:
- What is your favourite homemade food? What do you eat when you’re not eating at such magnificient restaurants?
- How much do you usually tip? Just want to know your opinion on tips in general
- What made you decide to start this channel?
Great video btw, loved it❤
+1 for the tip question!
These reviews just keep getting better and better. Love seeing more of the interactions and reactions during the meal.
Gaetan was phenomenal! You can tell he really put that little touch on top of your service after only talking to you once!
Been here since you've had 16k subs and still enjoying your videos each day. Well done Alexander, proud of you and your team!
It's a good day when a new Alexander video drops
I love when you show us how small but important details like the warm towel can affect the quality of high-end dining experience. Really nice review with amazing nitty-gritty that offers the glimpse of what sets the best michellin-rated restaurants from the rest besides quality food!
Hi Alex! Thanks again for the Q&A. Please see below for my questions:
1. Why do some Michelin-starred restaurants only cater to parties of two or more? I'm a solo diner, it’s frustrating that I have to travel to places like Florence or Antwerp just to experience dining at a 3-star Michelin restaurant.
2. I’ve noticed that sommeliers often wear a grape pin to indicate their expertise during a service. Are these pins only awarded after reaching a certain level of certification?
3. What are the tell-tale signs that a Michelin inspector is present during a service? and how do restaurants behave when they are identified?
4. Are additional supplementary dishes considered in a restaurant’s Michelin review?
Your videos, man, one of the main factor that push me to work harder. I want to achieve such success that will allow me to eat at all of these restaurants
Your enthusiastic, positive, and very detailed introductions are always a pleasure to watch. Keep it up, Alexander!
Here I am watching this, packet of Cheas Naks for mains, Snickers for dessert, all washed down with a vintage Coca Cola in 450ml PET bottle.
I had a TV dinner earlier, and now after watching the video some microwaveable Ramen noodles...
The return of Alexander the Krug 😭😭
His Sommelier was right on the ball lmao 😂😎
As an South African I was glad to see one of our wines on the list
You have redefined the art of restaurant reviewing and food tasting . Watching your videos while having dinner has become a ritual since few weeks 😄 Wishing you all the success. ✨
"Call my bouche amused" is such a great line..
I just love the balance of praise and criticism!
Love how Gaitan casually brings out some DRC, beast
Gaétan...
I love watching people who care so much about their art which this is. They are not only feeding people they are creating art which makes everything better. This is so beautiful. I can’t even.
that lime stone cooking in turkey we use for pumpking dessert call kabak tatlısı. yes it is very firm and delicious
That was an exquisite culinary adventure. I loved seeing Alexander smiling and laughing. You could tell he really enjoyed every aspect of this special meal and wine pairings. ❤
I'm French. Needless to say, I'm passionate about the art of French gastronomy. The experience at this place seems so great it had me giggling and salivating. I loved your video, and I sure hope I can give Le Gabriel a try on my own.
Love the new editing style showing some of your interactions with the team and scenes like the towel!
2:06 In hungray we say "Kés Bak", and it makes a perfect sense.
I´m basic food kinda guy but your videos realy are fun and interesting to watch and a window into a world I will never visit. Thanks!
I always eat while I watch, in some way it feels like I'm partaking of his diningg experience....at least my imagination tells me so
Seriously one of the best channels on youtube. Congratulations Alexander!
From Oklahoma. Thank you! Small portions. Perfection in cooking. Oh! How lucky you are!
You are the best guy with these videos - fantastic transparency and rich in the background. Perfect videos I must say!
just blown away, amazing experience, Thank you!
Thank you for traveling us into this world Sir Alex. So much respect! ❤️❤️❤️
What strikes me is how all of these restaurants you visit seem to have basically the same feel. If you've been to one, you've been to them all. It's more about the chef and their journey than the people who dine there. It's food church. Honestly, the most happy and spontaneous I've ever seen you is when you visited Buster's BBQ in Calistoga CA.
Always brilliant. Pure class.❤
Another great video, I haven't found anyone else doing what you do. Bon app mon ami
I was fortunate enough to dine here in 2019, and I agree that the staff were super humble and kind. They had an incredible cheese cart which I did not see in your video. Too bad!
once more, a wonderful fascinating clip- thank you!!
Alexander, you have absolutely become my favorite new RUclips channel!! 👏 What a life you have! I will happily live vicariously through you, your enjoyment in this video was superb! I was excited for you, tied to imagine the flavors and the wine pairings as you went along. I love the way you piece these videos together, your narration is an amazing part of the genius behind this series. I will continue to watch and enjoy! Cheers my friend! 🍷
i always watch these videos while i try to savour my instant noodles I added an egg into to make it fancy
You just keep on getting better and better.
💯🍾
Wow top! Already looking out for your next video !!!
Your show reminds me of what could've been for myself in a positive way. Wonderful thank you so much.
That was beautiful.
What I don't understand is how people are expected to eat and drink so much in one sitting. Each dish is quite small, but when you have so many of them, it's an extremely large meal.
Banctel is about to be one of the best chefs in the world.
the most grandeur wine pairing yet 😍😍😍
I ate chicken while watching your video. Felt like fine dining. Thank you
Had the chance to eat at the Gabriel and meet chef Banctel, I will never forget this moment, one of my best experiences
Just wanted to say I love your videos. Constantly improving, you’re a leader in this field!!
Hello Alexander. I have a question for the Q&A: What hobbies do you have besides the world of food? Sports, nature, singing etc.
Huge fan of your stuff, it's always a pleasure to see your videos appear on my page!
Always an education of flavors. I have no doubt on your achieving 300,000 subscribers.
love watching n eating
Can't wait to visit all the restaurants you're visiting in Paris, my city, in a few years ! And of course, your own restaurant. Your videos will for sure be my guide ! Keep going, you're doing an amazing work
Pas de halal dans ces restaurants 😁
@@nickduf Ça en dit très long sur la grenouille que t'as à la place du cerveau 🤯 Joli commentaire bien raciste accompagné d'une sauce RN bien gauloise bien remontée !
Un petit conseil néanmoins, ferme la la prochaine fois, au risque de te faire bombarder 🙂 Peace !
@@youssefbenkhamsa5693 On s'en balec de tes états d'âme de parasite, retourne au bled manger des dates, ici, tu ne manqueras à personne !! 😂
Hi Alexander, I love your content and came up with the idea for future video, maybe you could show us how to behave in restaurants like this. Have a great day!
Yeah this channel is awesome hey,I've watched 4 videos already and I'm hooked
Great seeing ur channel grow .. !!
I think there is no better way to experience the finest of dining than to watch your exquisite videos. Extraordinary. Thank you!
"Call my bouche thorougly amused" is something I need to remember as a line :)
I haven’t missed a single episode since discovering you last year! ✨
Hello Alexander! Sorry if this question is a bit nosey, but I'm sure many of us wonder the same thing. What's your occupation (or at least, was) before you started the channel? How do you fund this kind of lifestyle?
Your work has been consistently great since the beginning. Extremely high quality videos and a bubbly personality. You rock, man.
His real name is Varga Sándor, he is an entrepreneur. He is the founder and CEO of Livita Group, a big employment agency in Hungary. He also is the co-owner of 42 Restaurant.
This information is quite easy to find on the internet, although all of the material is written in Hungarian.
Man that looks fantastic!!
Yeeey! My Sunday is complete!!
.
I have literally only discovered Alexander’s channel today and have watched 10 videos back to back! Such good presentation style but, my god, I am going to have to seriously save for my retirement if I am to spend it experiencing these places!! Please keep making these videos so I can live vicariously through you!
This looks excellent -- pretty much what you want from modern / traditional French cooking.
Great Review Alex, greetings from Ireland. Would be great to join you for dinner somewhere
OMG! Le Gabriel! This is a dream come true!
All of your videos are superb journeys. You present these with great elegance and knowledge. It’s a pleasure to watch. Following your advice, I’ll bring my wife to Boury in a few months. Thanks Alexandre.
What a fantastic Chef and restaurant! Alexander, thank you so much for a great video. Love to see how brilliantly you share with us your experience.
Its an easy choice to enjoy a AGT video.
It's even easier when he's talking about food.
I want to go.
🍽✨ Wow, dining at Paris's newest 3 Michelin Star restaurant sounds like an incredible experience! 🥂🍷 The €455 menu must be out of this world! 😍👨🍳
One of the best videos you’ve done!
I think your understanding and love of food is what makes your videos always trigger a click from me whenever I see it. It's not about idolizing lush life, it's about celebrating moments, and you do it wholeheartedly, bringing positive mood while balancing with the objective critiques. I just know when someone wants the world to experience the beauty of life he experiences. Hopefully one day I get to join you!
went to this exceptional restaurant 2 years ago, was a 2 Michelin star back then, the cheapest for sure as the "base menu" was around 90 euros, now base menu for lunch is 185 for something highly similar, thanks Michelin for that 3rd star :)
Quick side note on La Pyramide : its an amazing place dear to my heart as it is an amazing bang for your buck and has one of the best (if not THE BEST) Chartreuse cellar in the world
In my opinion Le Gabriel and L'Enclume are the best 3 star Michelin experiences on your channel Alex. In terms of the food, professional service and wine they are both incredible.
I would love to go and experience this level of fine dining with you. I was raised to appreciate wonderful food and wine and my son who lives in Pasadena CA also loves his wine and has started a collection and he also makes beautiful delicious food. It’s part of what makes life special!
Watching this video eating a sandwich and drinking a simple wine while imagining that i have caviar and a glass of DRC in front of me. The videos just keep getting better and better.
This is what I expect from a 3star restaurant. Absolutely incredible.
Amazing, I’ve watched you from the beginning and never fails to impress me, thank you
Wow.. so happy for a new episode... I soo looked forward to these amazing videos... hv not missed a single one till date..
Regards
A loyal fan!!❤
2500 is so good for those delicacies...Let's go. And, thanks for this wonderful programme.
Got to say, this restaurant is how I fantasize the perfect Parisian restaurant meal experience for an unforgettable memory.
13:17 - strict control of the process
13:19 - they put the plate up the right way, he approves
What do you suggest a guest drink during the service if they do not like wine (I know that sounds blasphemous...)
Dom. de la Romanee-Conti in a wine pairing is insane!
Great video. Thanks. This meal made me dream. I'm sure it was a wonderful experience.
Always amazing wines. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to try it.
Find friends that appreciate you the way Alexander appreciates food and wine and your life is made.
