The bill

$470 a person (€420)

The dinner tasting menu, all plant-based. Food only, before drinks. Gault&Millau 2026 gives €260 to €420.

The smart way in

Alain Passard's vegetables, now fully plant-based. Lunch is the way in.

The smart way in: Lunch is about €260 for the same kitchen.
Getting a table: Very hard to book: try the restaurant's own line weeks out.
