As Paris gears up for the 2024 Olympics, renowned chef Yannick Alléno is set to open a new pop-up restaurant in collaboration with Moët & Chandon. Located at Beaupassage on Rue de Grenelle, “Moët in Paris by Allénos” will offer a unique dining experience that pairs Alléno’s culinary creations with a selection of sparkling wines 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. “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.”
The menu will feature dishes such as ‘My pretty duck foie gras terrine,’ sautéed trombetta squash with almonds and curry flower pickles, sea bream in cherry leaf, and cherry clafoutis.
While Alléno’s flagship restaurant, Alléno Paris au Pavillon Ledoyen, boasts three Michelin Stars, the pop-up aims for a more relaxed atmosphere, complete with live music and DJ sets. Each day at 17:43, a Champagne Happy Hour will start, commemorating the year Moët & Chandon was founded.
The interior, designed by fashion designer Charles de Vilmorin, promises an immersive experience. “My vision was to offer clients and visitors a dreamlike and offbeat world that highlights the festive spirit and French whimsy so evident in the House’s image,” de Vilmorin remarked.
With the influx of visitors expected for the Olympics, the pop-up is poised to become a highlight of the Parisian summer.
