Attention, taste turbulence ahead! For a summer that signifies refinement, Air France is making a stop in the heart of Paris by setting up its pop-up restaurant on the mythical Terrace of Galeries Lafayette Paris Haussmann. From June 25 to August 20, get ready to experience a culinary experience at altitude, all while keeping your feet on the ground… or rather on the 8th floor, with a breathtaking view of the capital. With decor inspired by the elegance of the tricolor company and a menu worthy of Business Class devised by star chefs, this restaurant promises a chic and gourmet interlude, far from the urban turmoil.
A “high-flying” gastronomic experience
Forget the traditional TV dinner or last-minute reservation at the corner bistro! Air France is taking to new heights and raising the level of Parisian lunch: destination the Terrace of Galeries Lafayette, transformed into an ultra-select airport lounge. Here, you can’t miss the boarding towards indulgence: navy blue for a chic touch, white for light, red for glamour. Instead of a porthole, a breathtaking panorama of the Paris rooftops awaits you, from the shimmer of the Eiffel Tower to the charms of Montmartre, passing by the Opéra Garnier.
Grand cru menus, signed by star chefs
In this “cabin” of only 20 seats, French gastronomy literally takes off! Comfortably seated like on a long-haul business flight, you can savor refined dishes created by the triple-star chef Régis Marcon and dessert prodigy Nina Métayer. Between a trio of Camargue rice with lemon and carrot-orange sauce, a chicken with morel sauce accompanied by green asparagus, and a hazelnut-caramel crunch or a Tatin-style dessert, prepare yourself for a true taste flight without time difference.
A table perched, away from urban turmoil
Here, the clinking of forks has replaced the sound of engines: sheltered from the crowd, the muted setting draws inspiration from the most luxurious airport lounges. Settle in for a suspended break, a lunch or dinner while contemplating the Parisian sky. If the temptation to extend the stopover is too strong, enjoy the outdoor lounge and relax on a deckchair, in the “Air France is in the air” style, with your sunglasses perched on your nose.
A service designed for takeoff
To enhance the immersion, the service envisioned by designer Jean-Marie Massaud gives each dish the allure of a grand journey. The meal trays, worthy of business, highlight each starter, main course, cheese, and dessert as an invitation to take off your taste buds. Whether it’s meats, fish, or veggie options (because in 2024, even menus at 10,000 meters have the right to be trendy), pleasure is available at every seat.
A world tour of pop-up tables
