This chef will invite you to his table for a year if you find the name of his future restaurant

This chef will invite you to his table for a year if you find the name of his future restaurant

This former Top Chef finalist is getting ready to open his first restaurant. For the occasion, he's organizing a big contest on Instagram to find the name of this future establishment.

Danny Khezzar, a Top Chef finalist who has already made a name for himself in Switzerland, is about to open the doors of his first restaurant in Rueil-Malmaison. Perched 14 meters above ground in a spectacular glass and mirror building, this daring yet accessible bistro promises an extraordinary culinary and artistic experience. But before the opening, one mystery remains: the name of the place. And to find it, Danny is calling directly on his public through a major participatory contest on Instagram.

This suspended bistro, part of the Bistrots Pas Parisiens concept, reflects the creative, mischievous world of 28-year-old Danny Khezzar. Known for his audacity in the kitchen, he offers here an innovative menu at under 40 euros, respecting the idea of affordable and inclusive gastronomy.

The setting is warm and theatrical, with a touch of originality that echoes the chef's double passion: cooking and music. At the center of the bar sits a majestic lacquered piano, symbolizing the promise of lively evenings, punctuated by French chanson standards.

A contest to name the bistro

For Danny Khezzar, this project is above all a collective adventure. To involve his community in this new stage, he decided to let the public choose the name of his bistro.

Via a major competition on Instagram, everyone is invited to propose a name idea that reflects the identity of the place and the chef's universe. The winner, in addition to seeing his or her suggestion adopted, will be rewarded in an exceptional way: an open table in the bistro and an invitation to come and discover Danny Khezzar's dishes for a year.

So, whether you're a gourmet or just a lover of great experiences, this is your chance to take part in the adventure by imagining the name of the restaurant. Visit us on Instagram from January 5, 2025 to propose your ideas and perhaps become a key player in this new culinary story.
