La Ferme du Pré: Frédéric Anton's new restaurant
On September 20, Frédéric Anton inaugurates his new restaurant, La Ferme du Pré. It's a contemporary bistro just a stone's throw from the Pré Catelan in the Bois de Boulogne.
A new adventure begins for Frédéric Anton. The chef, already at the helm of Le Pré Catelan (5 toques) in the Bois de Boulogne, Le Jules Verne (3 toques) on the 2ᵉ étage de la tour Eiffel, but also Don Juan II (4 toques), a yacht sailing on the Seine offering a timeless culinary experience, is getting ready to inaugurate its new establishment. It's La Ferme du Pré, a bistro set up opposite the head office, with a more accessible cuisine.
A restaurant in a former dairy
La Ferme du Pré, a contemporary bistro with generous, inventive cuisine, opens its doors this Friday, September 20. It is set in the heart of a former dairy, whose bucolic charm contrasts with the elegance of the Pré Catelan. This Norman-style building, unused since the early 20th century, opens onto a country garden with a large terrace. Inside, guests discover an authentic dining room, with tiled floors and antique crockery. It's like being in the heart of the countryside, just a few minutes' walk from the hustle and bustle of Paris.
In the kitchen, Frédéric Anton, assisted by his assistant Mehdi Sgard, offers generous, inventive cuisine, highlighting local, seasonal produce. You'll be able to sample the great classics of French cuisine, such as boeuf bourguignon, goujonnette de sole and crème brûlée, all reinterpreted with a contemporary twist.
Le Ferme du Pré, a project Frédéric Anton has been dreaming of for almost thirty years, can seat up to 40 diners inside, with a further 40 on the terrace in fine weather. The establishment is open from Wednesday to Sunday, lunchtime and evening, and will welcome customers every day in season.
