It's marvelous to see that Chef Giovanni is carrying on the tradition of the two great chefs who preceded him. Plus ca change...I was lucky to lunch and dine there on 3 occasions in the 1990's, the heyday of the man who put Crissier on the map, Freddy Giradet. Bravo

There are *very few* things in life that make me happy. Eating good food is one of them. I've been to multiple Michelin Star restaurants. Ie. Per Se, Eleven Madison Park, Daniel, Jean-Georges, The French Laundry, Joel Robuchon, etc. etc. I would love to put this on my list! The food looks amazing!

What an operation, and the food looked fantastic. I admire there standards and discipline.

I can't even imagine the flavors and aromas. That's when you know that fancy food has a lot of work and experience behind it.

[@marcoalla4931]

Thank you so much for showing the culture of eating, the quality of food, and the impeccable service. Normal that prices are high. After all, quality is paid for. Congratulations!

[@alexandresobreiramartins9461]

Yes, one thing many people commenting here don't understand is that this is not just filling your belly (though you DO, I get full just from watching these videos! 12 courses is a LOT!), but enjoying the whole sensory/aesthetic experience of those wonderful dishes added of the pleasure of such a great service!

[@kingk2405]

Marco Alla But cheaper than a ticket for a key basketball or football match . If you consider experiencing the best then going to a three stars Michelin restaurant is like for football buying a ticket for the superball or for an NBA key match. Little tip if you are going to this type of restaurant , never get the menu with the pairing wines . It does not worth it , go for the menu usually a set one with 5 to 12 courses depends and get a nice bottle of wine as even the cheapest one is excellent . Total bill for two should be around 600$ . Also go for dinner not for lunch as lunches usually have a kind of a shorter version of the dinner one you will not enjoy the all thing .

[@justagerman140]

Not with that attitude you can't. Cooking is an art form, a craft that can be learned, practiced and mastered. Keep in mind, that if you're cooking for your family you don't have the pressure and the stress of a whole restaurant filled with guests

[@ThreeGreenthumbs]

I like that you not only show the plated food but also cutting into it.

I have eating in one of this top notch restaurants. I was hesitant that I will be full at the end of the lunch, but in fact I could not have dinner nor breakfast the next day. Your stomach needs 20 minutes to tell your brain that you are full. Most people eat large quantities of food in less than 15 minutes. If you have 10 dishes with a 10 minutes between each dish, you will feel extremely full before 1 hour cooking. I was so full that I rejected the second dessert.
