A gigantic shark suspended from the ceiling greets guests. This is the unique concept chosen by Alexy Algar-Denos, a native of Perpignan and finalist on the 2026 season of *Top Chef*, to decorate his new restaurant on the banks of the Seine. The floating restaurant offers an elegant setting overlooking the river, with a unique atmosphere crafted by the chef.
A creative menu that changes every week
The chef emphasizes diversity with a menu that changes from week to week. Among the offerings, guests can try marinated sardines paired with bell peppers and strawberries. This appetizer highlights the freshness of the ingredients and the bold flavor of the bell peppers. Semi-cooked tuna is also among the options available to start the meal.
Catalan classics take center stage
True to his roots, Alexy Algar-Denos showcases the cuisine of his native region with Boles de Picolat, a traditional dish from Perpignan that happens to be his favorite. This specialty consists of a clever blend of beef, pork, and veal. The dish is served with a smooth and creamy white bean purée, creating a generous plate.
To round out the meal, the dessert menu offers a sweet finish that complements the generous portions of the preceding courses. Price-wise, expect to pay around 40 euros for a full meal including a starter, main course, and dessert. This represents good value for money given the creativity of the dishes and the riverside location.
