- Pierre Gagnaire restaurant by Pierre Gagnaire, Paris, France
Pierre Gagnaire
Paris, France
Pierre Gagnaire′s eponymous restaurant in Paris is still one of the most vaunted places to eat in the French capital, demonstrating the resilience of one of the food world′s true greats. Gagnaire′s approach to cooking combines a touch of the poetic with a dash of simplicity and a soupon of wistfulness for dishes that appear as mini art forms.
Beginning his career in St. Etienne where he won three Michelin Stars, Gagnaire tore at the conventions of classic French cooking by introducing jarring juxtapositions of flavours, tastes, textures, and ingredients. Chef Pierre Gagnaire describes the ethos behind his successful vision as: Tourné vers demain mais soucieux d’hier (Facing tomorrow but respectful of yesterday). Pierre Gagnaire restaurant in Paris was ranked third in the World’s 50 Best Restaurants by industry magazine Restaurant for three consecutive years (2006, 2007, and 2008).
