From Paris
For the upcoming cold season, Air France is collaborating with three-starred chef Anne-Sophie Pic on departures from Paris. Renowned for her work at the Maison Pic in Valence, she is the only woman to hold 3 Michelin stars in France.
The chef has created eight menus to be enjoyed on board, including a chicken supreme with sake, revealing the power of Japanese ingredients combined with local French produce, and roast parsnip – a forgotten vegetable that is now increasingly popular – with dill butter and curry combined with walnuts.
Those with a sweet tooth will love the Opera, the Black Forest or the Yuzu Entremets, created by Philippe Urraca, Meilleur Ouvrier de France.
From the French West Indies
From the French West Indies, French Guiana and the Caribbean regional network, Air France collaborates with Martinique chef Jean-Charles Brédas. The chef has come up with no fewer than twelve new dishes which will be available on board over the winter months. Creamy risotto with coconut milk, pigeon peas (a staple product of the Caribbean), roasted grouper fillet served with crunchy papaya sauerkraut, green sauce and dachine cubes… Local and seasonal products are in the spotlight.
Air France Menu - A Menu Rich in Flavours in La Première
Emmanuel Renaut, three-star chef and Meilleur Ouvrier de France, takes care of La Première. trongly inspired by Savoyard cuisine, he creates a gourmet, vibrant, colourful and resolutely modern cuisine featuring surprising and harmonious compositions.
On the menu? Eight different dishes, including farmhouse chicken confit with mushrooms and a vegetable mille-feuille, and a creamy blend of root vegetables, button mushrooms, porcini mushrooms and Beaufort, the flagship product of Savoyard cuisine.
The final touch, designed by Angelo Musa, places fruits in the foreground. We’re particularly fond of the mango, citrus and cognac baba, or the chocomûre, combining the power of pure Venezuelan dark chocolate with the tangy notes of wild blackberry.
Bottom Line
Once again, Air France is positioning itself as an ambassador for gastronomy with its sustainable, flavourful culinary offer. The airline has teamed up with some of France’s finest chefs to offer passengers in its Business and La Première cabins a true gastronomic journey.
