Gault&Millau's review 2026

The arrival of Rodolphe Despagne at Christine, in early 2025, has clearly given a new lustre to this restaurant, located not far from the Quai des Grands Augustins. The former pupil of Guillaume Iskandar (at Garance), Guy Martin at Grand Véfour and then second-in-command to Thomas Chisholm at ChoCho has dusted off a cuisine that had been purring, and now plunges us into a modernity full of spirit and freedom: roasted celery, chestnut cream, Piedmont hazelnuts and lovage sabayon for a nuanced starter, followed by two dishes that revisit the classics with mischief: rabbit with mustard, carrot and tarragon, and two-course scallops with Morteau sausage and smoked trout roe. Desserts in the same spirit, with a gourmet Nablus tahini, Mayan Red chocolate, coffee and black sesame with sunny accents, a very complete and varied cellar, which is also modernizing in leaps and bounds. Involved, smiling service.
