Description
This restaurant, whose name is a nod to the nearby Assemblée Nationale, sports a minimalist interior that mixes marble, 1970’s furnishings and Lalique light fittings. The savoury score is the work of Italian chef Flavio Lucarini (from Bistrot Flaubert and Jérôme Banctel’s Gabriel), while Aurora Storari (former head pastry chef at Le Clarence) is in charge of desserts. The chef's cuisine is certainly Gallic, but personal and subtly Italian thanks to acidic, bitter notes, as in the watercress risotto and squid alla Luciana with black lemon powder, or pigeon, cherry kosho, the leg as a tempura, crispy aubergine raviolo. Aurora’s creative desserts demonstrate bags of personality, illustrated by plum confit with hibiscus and sesame crème brûlée.
