Everyone's favorite pastry chef arrives at Galeries Lafayette Le Gourmet

Everyone's favorite pastry chef arrives at Galeries Lafayette Le Gourmet

A very popular French chef has just made official his arrival from September 11, 2024 to January 28, 2025, at the Galeries Lafayette Haussmann Gourmet pop-up. It's going to be a smash!

Mathieu Dubus

It's news that's sure to delight fans of comforting sweet treats. This media-savvy chef from Rodez in the Aveyron region, who trained with Alain Passard, is soon to join the Galeries Lafayette Gourmet space.

The 46-year-old pastry chef has appeared on shows such as Oui chef! and Top Chef on M6. He launched his first restaurant, Le Quinzième, in 2005. Today, the Ruthénois is at the helm of eight restaurants between Paris and London, eight patisseries between Paris and Rodez, and one establishment dedicated to privatizing events.

Of these, three are restaurants listed by our guide and investigators: Ischia 13/20 (2 toques), Aux Prés 12/20 (1 toque) and Le Chardenoux 11.5/20 (1 toque). Can you guess who they are?

An accessible boutique

Cyril Lignac, of course! For this new showcase, the host of Tous en cuisine has teamed up with Galeries Lafayette Haussmann's Gourmet to celebrate the 130th anniversary of the famous Parisian chain. The offer is reassuring, with the chef's great classics, such as his Equinoxe entremets and Baba au rhum.

Located in the heart of Paris's tourist and commercial center, the new boutique will enable everyone to enjoy one of his creations. The opening of a new boutique is also synonymous with novelty, which is why Cyril Lignac is revisiting his famous Ourson Guimauve in XL format and in the store's colors. The fluffy treat will be available for €8.

By inviting himself onto the shelves of this new boutique, the Aveyron-born chef joins other illustrious colleagues such as Pierre Hermé, Philippe Conticini and Yann Couvreur, who are also present in the Gourmet boutique at Galeries Lafayette Haussmann.
