Creative French cuisine, fixed menus, and 5-course dinners
"Alternatively, Le Pincemin is Pincemin’s gastronomic haven in Versailles where he indulges his passion for classic French sauces, meats and exquisite fish; as a former Top Chef winner who declined Parisian offers, he remains devoted to classics like sole meunière while drawing an international crowd." - Georges Rouzeau
"A bona fide star of social media who rubs shoulders with rappers and celebrities, Xavier Pincemin (the runaway winner ofTop Chef2016) almost overshadows the Sun King here in his Versailles restaurant. He brings together all generations and nationalities – if you are lucky enough to get a table. His up-to-the-minute cuisine showcases the finest produce without bells and whistles and demonstrates his sense of ambition as well as his undiminished passion for high-end gastronomy, as exemplified by his dish of hake, verbena, peach and courgettes." - Michelin Inspector
"At Le Pincemin, the artistic, inventive menu changes often based on the chef's whims, but you're likely to find dishes that meld land and sea; say, beef tartare with oysters, salicornes, and confit cucumbers, served in a giant Limoges porcelain shell. The signature—which must be ordered in advance—is the blue Breton lobster, flambeed and served with vegetables glazed in lobster bisque. The fixed lunch menu costs 35 euros (about $38); dinners have a five-course tasting for 65 euros (about $70)." - Lindsey Tramuta, Mary Winston Nicklin
