Maison de la Truffe
|
 |
|
Cramped and convivial, the layout of this shop was modeled after a Parisian's fantasy of an affable, cluttered, old-fashioned butcher shop in Lyon. It's an excellent source for foie gras, caviar, black and white truffles, and other high-end foodstuffs. Artfully assembled gift baskets are a house specialty. One corner is devoted to a restaurant where many (but not all) of the dishes contain the costly items (especially truffles) sold in the shop. Examples include noodles or risottos with truffles, and caviar with all the fixings. A prix-fixe menu costs 19€ without truffles, 55€ with truffles. Most main courses cost 25€ to 60€, except for caviar, which begins at 128€ to 240€ per person. The restaurant is open during the open hours of the shop, although the last food order is accepted 45 minutes prior to closing.
