Before visiting, I was a little nervous that the menu was too complicated for my tastes. I tend to like simple, high quality food that isn’t flashy for the sake of being flashy. But Les Rosiers is hardly that at all. The chefs, it turns out, are technicians as much as they are artists. All of the ingredients in every dish came together to create surprising harmonies of flavors. Nothing felt superfluous or done “just to impress.”
From the first amuse-bouche that played with the contrast of heavy biscuit and a very light, almost cloud-like mousse, to the beautiful dessert that brought together strawberries, fennel, basil and meringue in a perfect synthesis, all the dishes revealed a style of cooking that was both very precise and very soulful. A great mariage of art and craft.
And of course, the produce the kitchen has access too is simply incredible. Even the green beans will knock your socks off. It’s one of the few times I’ve paid so much for a meal and come away feeling like I got a bargain. A place that has definitely earned its Michelin star!
