The culinary imagination and technical finesse of chef Pierre Gagnaire continue to make this a fascinating haute cuisine spot. Every dish is an elaborate composition of tastes and textures, and Gagnaire’s main course of turbot and conch, for example, includes a snowy chunk of the fish in pepper butter with fine slices of conch in a sherry-spiked reduction of citrus and garnishes of cauliflower, turnip and Jerusalem artichoke with arugula-flavored whipped cream. Gagnaire’s tasting plate of nine different desserts is legendary. The restaurant is located within the Hôtel Balzac but is entirely independent. Closed Saturday and Sunday.
