Chez Michel Description:
Scion of a family of restaurateurs, Thierry Breton was just doing what came naturally when he decided to become a chef. Just as naturally, his preference is for country cooking such as Breton cuisine, the backbone of his single-price menu (€30), which draws gourmets from all over Paris. It features a daring andouille terrine with buckwheat crêpes, kig ha farz (an Armorican boiled dinner of hog jowls and country-cured bacon), and buttery rich kouign-aman cake. But, that's not all. The young chef also knows how to leave his native coasts to realize and do justice to inspired plates like thickly-cut tuna steak with caviar and eggplant and seasonal game. He's even unearthed a cheap and cheerful Breton vin de pays to wash these good things down with, or try some of the buckwheat or oat beer for a change! Don't forget to enjoy a meal here soon, for Chez Michel might close, so that Thierry Breton can devote more time to his other restaurant, Chez Casimir. So, hurry up!
