Reviews of interest
- François-Régis Gaudry – L’Express (2010) “Le bistrot marin de Pierre Gagnaire : un genre de mini-yatch lactescent, rétro-éclairé…Le merlan à la moelle de boeuf…un ping-pong terre-mer, nettement plus limpide cette fois, arbitré par les touches végétales d’un joyeux »jus vert » (à base de purée d’épinard et de beurre meunière) et du chou juste blanchi…”
- Gilles Pudlowski (2010) “…des mets marins raffinés délivrés par une équipe efficace et complice…Le bonheur? Il peut être au bar, avec ce que Pierre Gagnaire nomme ‘la pêche modeste’. Le bortsch d’été, avec espadon, quenelle de rumsteack, pain noir, crème épaisse, l’anchois frais à la basquaise…”
- François Simon (date unknown) “…des plats réussis, de la classe, de l’originalité… L’esprit Gagnaire est là, dans tout ce qu’il a d’accessible à condition d’aimer être surpris.”
- John Talbott (2005) “…it was all Gagnaire with none of the old Gaya left over…our firsts were a “cocktail” glass of wasabied mango and grapefruit, then noodles, topped off with thinly sliced cod as well as an “egg mimosa,”… mains were a deconstructed tempura-ized cuttlefish and haddock and coques on a bed of mixed grains (bulgar, quinoa and an ancient variety of wheat from Provence) – both exquisite.”
