Trusted reviews
- Gilles Pudlowski (2010) “Le cochon de lait rôti, le foie de veau en persillade comme le pied de porc en ravigote ont, chez Alexis Blanchard, la verve alerte et la légèreté de mets raffinés.”
- Alexander Lobrano (2010) ” Though the quality of the meal was much better-than-average overall…this is a very sad spot in which to have a meal.”
- Barbra Austin (2010) “…house-made terrines and high cholesterol…”
- Caroline Mignot (2010) “ouvert par…Alexis Blanchard, qui a pris avec lui tous ses prix, de meilleur boudin, pied de porc à la cassine, tête pressée, terrine, ouvre ses entrailles pour vous donner le meilleur de ce qui serait presque considéré comme impolitiquement correct aujourd’hui…
- François-Régis Gaudry – L’Express (2010) “… Les végétariens détalent, les autres se régalent.”
- Emmanuel Rubin – Le Figaro (2010) “Les quatre syllabes de « charcuterie » auraient suffi…les ris, les tripes, la tourte, les terrines, la gueule de veau gribiche, la queue de bœuf…”
- John Talbott (2010) “… a great idea in pretty much of a culinary desert.”
