Beautiful Monte Carlo, good upper class fine dining experience 3 stars Michelin Le Louis XV- Alain Ducasse à l’hôtel de paris Monaco. We hope your enjoy the video.
WOW to believe that Great Chef Alain Ducasse Is today one the greatest best chefs in the world Great food Great Chef I still remember 20 and 10 years ago and I have a video of him cooking vegetables I think at one of big famous hotel restaurants and teaching someone else how to cook in the kitchen
I bought 6 pounds of beef last night the cow was still alive at 7:40 pm by 9:20 I picked up my orders I got some amazing beef cuts some ribeye and some meat part looked amaze I had steak 🥩 for breakfast I forgot to tenderize but it was very well seasoned medium well with salt pepper and onion powder cooked on medium low with olive oil 🔅 for 10 minutes. It was so good 😊.
When you consider the location, the decor, the service, the quality of the ingredients, and that this is probably a once in a lifetime meal for one person, the price isn’t that crazy. I’ve spent more on a night in Vegas.
French 3 stars cuisine is unfortunately not very profitable, compared to the amount of work that is put in. My theory is that Bernard Loiseau committed suicide over it, as despite relentless work for 35 years, he could barely reach profitability, so when he was slightly degraded by the Gault and Millau, that was the straw that unfortunately broke the camel's back.
The history of this place is incredible . Some of the best chef of the world have forged their art here , now owners of 2-3 star Michelein restaurants as well . The highest level international customers have dined here . I wish I can enjoy one more time as well . 🙌🏻 Thanks for the video , superbe .
Perfection. Not really gimmicky or too pretentious. French high dining at its best. Oh apart from my mum’s beef bourguignon, we were not allowed to taste it for 3 days.
the food looks amazing. but also the background noise in this video is so comforting. the sound of human activity gives both a sense of comfort and a sense of the scale of the room.
Yes I'm surprised about how many people are complaning about the background noise, like isn't a restaurant supposed to be a living place ? I would hate to spend an evening with silence and empty rooms

@@GourmetBGourmet Please don't add music, it's important to hear the real restaurant noise. It's just surprising that it's that loud while sitting there. Personally I wouldn't like that as a guest.
Most of these Michelin star restaurant food is experimental, mostly raw or less cooked food with good presentation, to justify price some ingredients like caviar and truffles thrown in
I had a lunch there yesterday, sat at the the same table. The Gourmet price fix menu is same. The experience is beyond the taste of the food. This is by far my most favorite starred restaurant. However they didn't give me the baked gift. I saw the boxes piled up at the table near the entrance and didn't know we could bring one home. Enjoy your video. Thanks for sharing.
Considering how expensive my local Diner is now, $25 for cheeseburger / french fries (when you factor in tax and tip). This Le Louis XV Alain Ducasse Restairamt is a bargain at $450. I used to order out at least a few times a week from a restaurant, but now I just stopped going to restaurants all together because of the prices. I would rather just save my money and then once or twice a year go to a really nice upscale restaurant for a celebration.
It's funny how many people would prefer a burger from a fast food restaurant over this menu and had the urge to write this in the comments. It's pretty obvious that there are two worlds. If someone pays 414 Euros for a menu, it's not about 100 Euros more or less, it's a lifestyle dedicated to the extraordinaire. I personally prefer other things for that money but I see the beauty of having these gourmet experiences a few times in a lifetime. If people are so fond of their cheap foods, one has just to look at obesity rates in certain countries. There was always a certain pretentiousness about the French cuisine. A fast food shop is found everywhere in the world and street food can be extremely yummi too. Nobody said, that eating at Ducasse prevents a person to try out cheaper and simpler food in the beautiful towns and cities at the French riviera. Non industrial food in France is just heaven on earth.
I’ve lived on the Riviera (Côte d’Azur) for the last 10 and a half years and can tell you the food is bang average here. You’re right, French food is pretentious and expensive but doesn’t deliver on taste like when I visit Asian restaurants in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Seoul, Bangkok etc. Plus all the waiters bowing their heads and being subservient, I hate that. Nah, French food isn’t the best food in the world, it isn’t even the best food in Western Europe. Go to Spain and Italy for that at a fraction of the price.
One special thing about places on this category is that the level of detail service is so high that they infuse the sense of gift on every plate and gesture, so despite the fact that the bill pays for all they offer you, you still feel they are giving you a lot: every plate has abundance in detail, there are palate cleanser and other perks between courses, they chef gives you something to snack before you order, they give you something to take home. A wonderful sense of love for you, for good service and for the magic of food.
Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful video restaurant is beautiful the ceiling is gorgeous outstanding and beautifull it is one of the old ceilings when decorated by hand and put beautiful pictures in the ceiling boards and the menu and the food also looked delicious @ Gourmet B Gourmet 👍👍😀😀🌹🌹❤️❤️
The Michelin 3-star is not only about the food, it is every tiny detail from the greeting to the cutlery to the service, the decor, the space between tables, and of course the food. Usually they are very quiet, I am surprised by the level of noise here, cutlery clanking, chairs scraping on the floor, loud voices. That would put me off this one. 🇦🇺

You gotta realize it's not just about the food, you're paying for the experience. That's why the presentation, service, ingredients are all extraordinary because the experience is what people pay for. I can watch football at home, and get better views, and play by play commentary, cheaper beer and food, but I go to the stadium for the experience which is why I'm willing to pay $400 for a ticket and $15 beers. I'm buying an experience. But because this is geared towards the wealthy people feel the need to hate on it, as if they are somehow above it. If you wouldn't want to experience this meal service at least once in your life there's something wrong with you lol. And this is coming from a country boy in the midwest ha. This looks incredible!
I have dined one time in my life $100. plate at the top of a high rise looking at in the night seeing the lights. Will never forget it. I am sure, there are plates that cost more, but for me, that was pretty darn expensive but boy was it ever so good. So it was worth it. Amazon car hop trays.
I mean other than the fact that it sounds like you're eating in a train station it seems cool... and I couldn't imagine drowning each of those nice pieces of seafood in a creamy sauce. They'd all just taste the same. I dunno. If you offered me a free meal here I'd be jazzed about it but it hardly seems worth the price point, especially with that dirty tablecloth and crazy noise level. The crispy breads with the vegetables and truffles are cool as shit though and I'm gonna try to make them. The lemon soufflé and fresh herb tea looked nice, too.

@@GourmetBGourmet Yeah, I love what you're doing. This wasn't a criticism of you or your recording, it's of the space and tone that the restaurant is setting.
I live 10 minutes away from Monaco, and I can tell that this modern pretentious cuisine is an insult to actual cuisine. It further showcases that rich people actually have no taste and they think they get the best of the best just by paying ridiculous prices for 2 crackers with a few pieces of truffle, which honestly tastes like ass let's be honest.
so true, rich dummies eat crazy expensive crappy food for bragging rights, I personally know a few of these dummies and I always let them know they are fools 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The point is not to fill you up, the point is to use your senses in a different and unique manner. The price comes from the experience, uniqueness, price of ingredient and such. It's like "why would I listen to music on 10$ headphones if I can get the best experience possible for one of my senses with 800$ headphones?"
@@xaxaFilms but the tastes are not even that incredible that's the thing, sure for Americans who are used to eat plastic, anything outside of their country would taste great, but for us, people who are actually used to real cuisine, it's really nothing that incredible.

On that day my condition not very good , so I haven’t drink on lunch, if you interesting wine, you can watch our recently video Le Cinq 3 Michelin stars have wine pairings, thanks
I’ve been to over a handful of Michelin star restaurants (always 2-3 stars). And let me tell you guys, the food isn’t worth the money EVERYTIME. It’s all pretentious and made for the people who have so much money that they don’t know what to spend it on. People who claim that these food are for people with finer pallet are lying to themselves, too.
You don't go to a restaurant like this simply for good tasting food, it's for the experience. You've been to more 2-3 star michelin restaurants than 99% of people on Earth, yet I doubt you have so much money you don't know what to do with it. Some people will spend a few hundred dollars on sports tickets a few times a year, and some people will go to a restaurant that offers an incredible experience like this a few times a year. You don't need to be a billionaire to afford a $450 meal every now and again, just like you don't need to be a billionaire to afford football tickets that cost $450 a few times a year. This is an incredible level of service, presentation, ingredients, etc. I've never been to a michelin restaurant, but I can appreciate something like this because it's extraordinary and I don't have to hate on it because it's geared towards the wealthy.

Im actually a bit shocked, the price doesnt seem that bad when you figure in everything you were given, It almost seemed to be around a 5-7 course meal. And for the location and the history of the place and the experience, it honestly seems to be worth it.
I agree. Very reasonable price considering location and product received. Check any high end dining in California. This is probably half the cost and twice the execution.
although the food looks good, their cutlery looks kinda awkward to use and its frankly quite shocking that the a la carte menu put each of these dishes in the range of 100+ euros.
I went here last year. Actually struggled to enjoy it. Being Monaco there were a lot of clear “paid dates” at nearby tables. The butter in particular was insanely good though.
The portion size and price is perfect for a family of 10 hungry people. Can last them 7 days. Im telling you, we should viral out this restaurant due to its generousity.
A tasting menu is a collection of several dishes in small portions, served by a restaurant as a single meal, so you can try more restaurant signature dishes
as someone looking to get into the chef trade, not knowing much about cooking or who Alain Ducasse is... this surprised me. you're paying for the experience more than anything. not my type of thing, personally, but i respect the creativity. the steamed fish especially, very cool. i dont think i'd ever pay to visit such a place but its nice to have a glimpse into all that and how food can be a sort of fine-art. that slice of bread with butter and oil made me laugh, so simple, the food equivalent of modern art i suppose! if i worked there i'd serve a fancy beans on toast!
Try doing a bit or research and reading up a bit about the culinary field. Background included, it’ll help you lots in school. By the time you’re done you’ll know about a lot of famous chefs. And you’ll even aspire to work for some. Fine Dining is about so much more but the experience makes up the better part of it. I doubt anyone goes there for beans on toast, regardless of how fancy.
so you're a Mcdonald's guy eh? Please don't get into cooking if you don't even know how to appreciate a culinary master like Ducasse. Stick to your daily Mac and cheese.
Recently favourite is Guy Savoy Paris service delicious and good dining experience and Le Louis XV Monaco is difference level, slightly less favourite is hutong London.
Pour 414 euros je fais des repas pour une bonne trentaine de repas et je peux vous dire que ces chez gens là comme disait Brel il se régale j admet que ce n est pas de l'argenterie mais tout d même je sert les repas dans de vraies assiettes merci pour eux quand vous dépenserez autant pour un repas
This is all quite impressive, but I’m surprised by the ambient sound. I would expect soothing jazz piano, or a classical string quartet playing in the background no other noise, but this sounds like a busy shopping mall.
Thank you so much for sharing the beautiful delicious video especially the cheeses Bug Mouse here would have finished just about all the cheeses @ Gourmet B Gourmet 👍👍😀😀♥️♥️

Went there for a New Years Eve party. Must be 20 years ago now. I remember a glorious fillet steak and ordering a "cheap" St Emillion for €450. Would I do it again,? Bloody right I would, given half a chance.
why dog food, you mean the size? A tasting menu is a collection of several dishes in small portions, served by a restaurant as a single meal, so you can try more restaurant signature dishes
I went to this restaurant then I met the waitress. I said her armpits were sweating and I could smell it. She was embarrassed. First meal: the chef shat on the plate and man; it was the best food I have ever eaten.
€414 without wine, but not expensive considering Location, interior, service, 3stars Michelin, chef reputation. Many restaurants in Shanghai, Seoul much more expensive
@@jlaz11 Not really the point, not saying the food is not awesome but stupidly expensive dining is even more of a status thing in Asia than it is in Europe, The VIP restaurants are all about appearing and existing in good society, inviting a bunch of people, ordering 10 times as much as you can eat (lots of food waste) and fighting to be the one to pay the outrageous bill.
@@louisazraels7072 kinda disagree, but also see your point. Fine dining like this is like patronizing artists. There's definitely some chefs doing some amazing and interesting cuisine in Asia, some of which are pushing the envelope more so then in Europe
Food looks high quality and well executed, but for $454, it looks rather disappointing. Not a ton of rare or unique ingredients and not a lot of creative cooking techniques. I have only dined at one Alain Ducasse restaurant (Jules Verne almost 10 years ago), it seems like this restaurant and his other restaurants (based on other videos) seem a bit underwhelming for the price. Thanks for the video! Enjoy your videos nonetheless.
Agreed, 2 separate bread courses in addition to a bread and cheese course seems overdone. A few of these dishes seemed cliche or filler courses that would be negatively viewed if Alain Ducasse wasnt putting his name on it. I'm sure its expertly prepared but I think this menu would look lackluster if compared to its peers in many other 3 star restaurants.
@@donaldjabibski4223 Yeah I'm baffled, it's basically 5 courses at nearly $100 per course. I saw another video from the same channel where they went to another Alain Ducasse in London for $580 and was also underwhelmed with what I saw. This is almost criminal if I'm being honest, $500 is already pretty steep for most 3 star restaurants and seems like the price shock and outcome are consistent for all Ducasse restaurants.
I'm inclined to agree. I make no claims of a being a gourmand, but that price is pretty steep for what was served. For 500 hundred clams, I'd expect some aged steak, lobster, or some really rare ingredients, but hey if you got the money and think its worth it sure. I'd just ask for the wagyu selection. XD I've grown found of tasting menus but as a everyday 9-5 kinda guy, I think I got a pretty good value for the 150$ range, so seeing 500 $ price tag for somewhat underwhelming food.. make my bank book cry. but who knows, maybe the flavor is orgasmic.
@@jlaz11 I’ve seen better airplane food honestly. I was shocked even a quarter of the way through the video at how abysmal the food looks. Boring and played out.

Credo che manchi un ingrediente fondamentale: dopo una grandissima mangiata di salsiccia e broccoletti, una verace scoreggia sonora e piena di odori importanti su ogni piatto di quelli presentati.
I thought to get 3 * the whole concept has to fit perfect. It sounds like a train station there, wouldn’t like to have perfect food in such an atmosphere

While in the USA, the most receipt for dinner i had paid was at Zia's Restaurant in New Orleans 120 USD in 2016. On the other Hand in Turkey, Chinese meals and sushi together are priced at highest for my apetite and paid 600 TL for 1 bowl of rice with mixed meat, 1 Guangzhou meat , 2 sakes, 1 plate of 48 sushis Prince Sushi plate for me.
Great place and surroundings, but very sadly we were disappointed on the day we went, their bechdan nionyn was a letdown,the staff were excellent and they let us chooses another dish, which we did,a very scrumptious plate of sglodion tatws with a delicious side dish of menyn poeth, which made up for the first course. The dessert,if you can call it that was yet another letdown, mefus e hufen ia did not alert the taste buds at all. Although thoroughly disappointing, we would go again just to see the nice windows and doors, especially the doors!!! Beauties, the lot of them.
