La Grande Épicerie —  know-how at work! The finest delicatessen in Paris, entirely redesigned. A reality and a dream. The address that used to foster the exceptional now displays it. After 18 months’ of renovations, it blends culture, fashion and fine food like no other. As “the” menu of the age, design, photography and literature adopt a culinary feel. Fashionistas become foodistas, the must-haves are cream puffs, and the collections new flavours of macaroons. More than ever before, good taste simply adores good food. What if La Grande Épicerie de Paris became the finest market in France, or even Europe ?

Vendredi dernier, Mix en bouche organisait une petite sauterie annonçant l’ouverture du restaurant éphémère les grandes tables de l’île. L’occasion de savourer les créations culinaires imaginées par le chef étoilé Arnaud Daguin, de se perdre dans cette structure métallique dessinée par le tandem de 1024 architecture Pier Schneider et Francois Wunshel et de danser sur les rythmes electro d’invités de marque tel Etienne de Crecy. Un moment festif qui nous amènera sûrement à revenir déguster des plats biologiques dans un décor atypique qui disparaitra d’ici quelques années.

Later on, we’ve been to the very old Etter distillery. In 1840, Johann Baptist Etter, a farmer at the time, already made a name for himself as a good cherry distiller. His son, Paul, turned making “Kirschwasser” (cherry “water”) into his main occupation more than 135 years ago. Etter Kirsch has existed ever since.

Marc Bretillot, designer et plasticien, prend l’expression « faire à manger » à la lettre. En utilisant des aliments comme matière première de son design, ce mangeur invétéré a découvert en 1999 que l’intelligence des papilles et celle de la main engendraient un terrain de recherche inexploité et fécond. Un mouvement est né, le design culinaire, entouré d’un vif succès dès sa création.
