Lucie – French
Lucie captures the essence of sophisticated fine dining, where the air is thick with the promise of a meticulously choreographed culinary journey. Guests are swept away by the "Menu Émotion," a sequence of artful plates ranging from the silky richness of Hudson Valley foie gras to the coastal brightness of Nova Scotia lobster. The experience reaches its crescendo with the signature Pithivier, a masterclass in pastry and precision that transforms a meal into a lingering, multi-sensory celebration.
