Chef Yannick Alléno, whose restaurant empire holds 16 Michelin Stars, is opening a pop-up in the French capital this summer in partnership with Champagne powerhouse Moët & Chandon. Summer 2024 is set to be a packed one for Paris, with the Olympics coming to the city in late July. Capitalising on the influx of visitors expected to what is already a hugely popular travel destination, Moët in Paris by Allénos will see the chef, who has been a long-term ambassador for the Champagne brand, create dishes to pair with a selection of sparkling wines as curated by Moët & Chandon cellar master Benoît Gouez. “Moët in Paris by Allénos blends the grandeur of our gastronomic heritage with the vibrant spirit that defines modern Paris,” said Alléno. “It’s a place where each glass of Moët & Chandon is not just a toast, but also a celebration of craftsmanship, community, and the shared joy that only such timeless elegance can inspire. We’re not just creating meals, we’re crafting memories woven into the very heart of the city — each one as effervescent and unforgettable as this Champagne.” Among the dishes that will be served are Alléno’s ‘My pretty duck foie gras terrine’, sautéed trombetta squash with almonds and curry flower pickles, sea bream in cherry leaf, and cherry clafoutis. Alléno’s famed Paris restaurant, Alléno Paris au Pavillon Ledoyen, holds three Michelin Stars, but the pop-up promises to be a slightly more relaxed affair, with live music and DJ sets. At 17:43
