Jean-Louis Nomicos - Les Tablettes

May 24th 2013


I had read many good things about Jean-Louis Nomicos. It must have been one of those nights off. I didn't feel the talent I was expecting. The menu is well designed and has all the necessary elements to provide a luscious meal but it fell short on tiny details: warmth of the dishes, textures (especially the sweetbread was all moist and didn't deliver that crispy crust that was expected), sherbets were already melted when served, etc.


Lemon jelly, tomato

Goat cheese, Olives; Eel and Apple


Green Asparagus, soft boiled egg, morels, Arbois wine

Seabass, fennel steam, artichoke, sea snails, cherry-tomato, basil

Truffle macaroni, foie gras, celery, veal jus

Veal sweetbread, ginger, lemon grass, carrots


Strawberry, tomato, peppermint, star anise, vanila, ibiscus, rubarb

Grand cru chocolate, mascarpone ice cream, cocoa sherbet
