Exceptional Restaurant You enter this intimate room in a quiet neighborhood near the Prado and the sea just as you would MoMA or the Centre Pompidou: to see the latest contemporary art exhibition by Alexandre Mazzia, a tightrope poet constantly creating new colors, flavors, spaces and shapes. If you want to see this haute couture show, you'll need to plan ahead and get yourself in shape. Because yes, for an immersive experience - a term so stupidly overused as to be laughable - you're in for a real treat. The fireworks never stop: from the fish water vinegared with sea fennel and roasted brewer's yeast, it's a good thirty bites that are likely to shake up your vision of today's cuisine. You might try langoustine with red fruits, root vegetable broth and sumac, grey shrimp with katsuobushi heads and green chili oil, or crousti with galanga and beef in a campari and mignonette juxtaposition. This is only the beginning, of course, as the breath is strong and the waves countless, for spider meat animal juice marinated wolf veil beet sake and garum or mussels mackerel herring coconut condiment mojito tarragon and green juice... Yes, we get the idea, because if you can't remember the technical data sheets, you'll never come away unscathed, and the emotions are long-lasting, right down to the smoked chocolate with Espelette chilli, puffed rice with turnips and bacon dust, or the watermelon gin voile basil with watermelon condiment Get 27, among the dozen or so sweet creations (we hardly dare speak of desserts). Once again, with a top-notch team, including a young sommelier who can also take you very far, with wine, beer, sake or tea, Alexandre Mazzia reminds us just how far he is taking French gastronomy as a whole.
